The BoomBoom Room at the Cafe!

Good morning, Newdists! Hope everyone is doing well. Pull up a chair, grab a cuppa and something tasty and joins us for a bit.

Not all treasures are parked in museums. Some of them are handed down within families.

This article is a gem for learning the simplest, most effective ways to do laundry better. I learned most of them from my mum, but even I learned a new trick or two!

In the museum….

This was a surprise! I didn’t know there was actual film footage of Queen Victoria. This is from before there was a Republic of Ireland.

Tell me this isn’t a treasure! I’ll fight ya for it!
