    Reviews of RAF and WAAF Repro Uniforms?

    Very few decent repros of WAAF kit around, avoid Warhorse. A good tailor here drafting from originals, not cheap but right. Why not go for the stewards uniform? Much easier and rarely done. Kate

    GrantFan, don't sweat it! it's healed very well. My 13 year old son was born with a slight cleft in his lip and it's virtually unnoticeable now. A bit of dermablend if it really bothers you or something light reflective. K

    What's a name for a metal kitchen cabinet?

    In the antiques trade here in the uk they are commonly referred to as a kitchenette. I have one, a 30s one albeit, with a lovely enamelled drop down which is just the right height for my son to make himself a sandwich on....then leave the jam on the board and close the door......said jam then...

    Re favours, the little bags of sugared almonds must have been around in the UK as I have the remnants of them from my grandparents wedding in 1932. It was little muslin bags or georgette/netting. K

    I'd like this, there's something very festive about Tartan! So I'm ordering this. I know I'll get loads of wear out of it. Amy Jeanne, where in the UK? I'm near York if you want a tour guide!
