So sorry to hear this. Condolences to all family and friends and thanks for letting us know OP.
Like many other posters I remember her time on Pebble Mill and still have her typewritten newsletter entitled Poundstretcher Fare... Budget Cookery designed to feed a family of four for £25 a week. I think that it cost me a stamped addressed envelope and has been one of the best bargains I ever had!
I know that it's been discussed before but I'm sure that a new generation would still find her tips and down to earth style interesting if her programmes were reshown. RIP Shirley, and thanks for setting me on the right path as raw, skint, newly wed.The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
Thanks to everyone who contributes to this wonderful forum. I'm very grateful for the guidance and friendliness that I always receive from you.
