Mother

Monochrome Monday. A single wagon of coal is propelled on to the canal wharf. A small amount of coal still goes via canal to a foundry a few miles away, the railway having never got there. Meanwhile milk is delivered to The Pedant & Armchair, many of the customers being elderly single men still living with mother. Mother won’t let them drink beer because it makes them angry, especially when toy train manufacturers announce their new line ups for the year. So, for these often socially challenged souls, one of the beer pumps serves warm milk and is often accompanied by a small bowl of pickled winkles. Mother approves, because the two together will make a good source of calcium and protein for her growing boy.
