On Good Friday in 1930, the BBC reported, "There is no news." Instead, they played piano music.

It was a different time. As a child, my Mother kept me in the house between noon and 3 on Good Friday.

When I was a child (~1954), my parents never locked their doors at night. When leaving for a weekend trip, they also didn't lock the house. I asked my Mother why and her answer was "what if the neighbors needed to borrow something, or there was a problem?" We never had a break in or theft.
Different times indeed.

I remember that. I was in grade school at a Catholic's school. I call that period in my life the dark ages.

Keep safe and well.

I remember the entire 50's as the quietest period of my life. Although I now know about what happened during that period, at the time, it seems to be very peaceful.

Ahhh, the 50's. Sounds familiar. We never locked the doors. I dont even remember having a key for them.
We also left the key in the car overnight. Never had a problem. Now that part of life I do miss.

We could use a day like that every now and then!
