Here's a treat for Mom and Dad - Vera Lynn (The Forces Sweetheart)
singing the war-time songs that kept us confident that all would be well
by the end of the war, kept us cheered up or helped us to fall in love.
Each song has special memories for anyone who was in the war- pure
nostalgia!

It is suggested that you download a player on the site which is easy (I
have Real Player which had to be updated - only took moments) which
handled the music well.
The songs can be played one at a time and/or down-loaded or you can
click on Play All of Them and it will do that - just like having the
radio on!
"We'll Meet Again, The White Cliffs of Dover, There'll Always be an
England" guaranteed to make the tears flow.
Love, Hazel
PS I had lunch with 3 other War Brides yesterday. We all came over to
Canada on the Aquitania. Our chattering got us around to chilblains -
did anyone ever have those? I think they were caused by the damp, cold
weather - excruciatingly painful.
