Whilst in Nottingham at the weekend I picked up a great vintage book called NEW CLOTHES FROM OLD - all about war-time rationing and making-do. It's full of useful tips about how to make clothing work extra hard. Some of the ideas are probably far too time-consuming for us today, but there are lots of ingenious suggestions too. I was chatting with my Sister-in-law Katy about the book and she had a flick through it. She's really good at sewing and all sorts of crafts - she recently made a fantastic zebra hand-puppet for my Nephew and Niece at her KNIT NIGHT in Stroud. One project that particularly caught her eye was the 'tiny tot's play dress' which you can make from 'father's old shirt.' Now my brother sports very natty shirts, many of them floral - the perfect fabric for a little girl's dress. Katy rather like the idea of giving this project a go and as my Niece is just a few months old - she's the perfect model. So - Katy has volunteered to try out the challenge and keep us all up to date via my blog on the success (or otherwise!) of her endeavours. I've promised her a bottle of champagne to keep her engaged when the going gets tough. Let's see what Katy's going to do next!

Waiting staff in sailor suits would take orders from customers in their cars at the Ship Mates Drive-In in Laguna Beach, California. A black and white photograph of this long-lost establishment also shows a circular diner, topped by a ship’s mast and a cheery sailor figure using a nautical telescope to look out to sea. On the menu which greeted customers with the phrase Good Morning Shipmates! Start The Day Right, there were numerous breakfast specials – the most expensive cost $1.25. Coffee was 10c a cup, hamburgers cost 50c and a cherry phosphate, an effervescent soft drink, cost 15c. The simple artwork on the menu cover, in navy blue fonts and illustrations, beautifully reflects a quieter scene in this beautiful Orange County coastal city in the 1950s. We’ve found two owners of The Shipmates Drive-in which was located at 1201 South Coast Blvd – E J Jones and Parky Crosby. Crosby renamed it The WheelHouse and offered seafood dishes and cocktails in its later incarnation. There is now a Jack In The Box at the site. Courtesy Private Collection.
