We evacuated ourselves away from Hull and the wartime bombing into an old

That's impressive indeed. Right now an old tin bath and a means of
heating enough water would be handy!

To be honest we're coping fine without the heating, it's getting used
to not having the luxury of a daily shower, and bathing the baby in the
sink (which at least he seems to like!) that are the major stresses.
