50th Anniversary of the death of Sir Winston Churchill 24/01/1965

Not a tale from our archives, but one from the WVS who fed the 82 thousand queuing to pay their respects (recipes included if you need to cater for similarly large parties).

The tale about the twins who were not twins is also interesting and useful fore anyone who likes setting puzzling riddles.

And was there really a volunteer called Miss Hope Less? I’m pleased to say none of our volunteers would fit that description!
