Power of supermarkets

Now, it takes two salaries to keep a roof over the family's head, also, many have had to move away from the extended family (who might have helped with child care) in order to get those salaries. That said, it seems many parents of younger children now seem to expect to spend more time and money on a social life than I remember my parents' generation doing. To bring this back on-topic, have you noticed that gardens are now generally considered part of the living space, not an opportunity to grow food? Gardening on Wilts/Somerset border on slightly alkaline clay underlying soil worked for many decades. |
