very new to this world ..

Post by Jenny60 »

Afternoon
i,m a real novice to this world but do love the drinking of the wine ..
Many years ago mum and dad did the home made wine from our farmhouse ..
we had wonderful time collection the fruit veg grain..

watching it change mum used to float fresh yeast spread on toast..we used old china
wash bowls the ones that came with jug and sat on the dressing table ..before
wash stand were in your bed room..lol

so now i,m trying to re kindle the past ( i do living history ) 1940s
and would love to have a few bottle for next season

Welcome Jenny. I heard stories of my Gmaw as a little girl hearing a knock on the door late at night when her dad ran the areas grind mill. She said there would sometimes be a lil bottle in the bottom of the sack of ground grain... :D
Still looking for my first build and run...
