My Auntie
worked as a physiotherapist in wartime London. One of her jobs was to treat slum kids for rickets with ultra-violet light. On their first treatment she had to take out the stitches that sewed them into their clothes and put in hook and eye fasteners.
East End children, pre-war, were sewed into their clothes in the fall and wore them day and night until spring.
I wonder if they stunk.
