milk churns
resurrecting a little blue - seen at Uppark House (NT) one Christmas
I remember reading in my dad's PoW diaries about 'klim' and being rather puzzled by it until a friend had a lightbulb moment realising that 'klim' is just 'milk' spelt backwards.***
I guess it was dried milk in a tin for PoWs' consumption and also remember as a child seeing, in my mum's pantry, tins of National Dried Milk.
I found online: 'National Dried Milk was powdered full-cream milk that was roller-dried to a powder, then fortified with vitamin D. It was intended for feeding to children at a time of milk rationing.'
You can also now buy an empty National Dried Milk tin online for £26.....
