Poor old spud

Poor old spud poster

The postcards tell us that potatoes were in short supply, but why? If you know any more about potato shortages during World War I, do let us know. Answers on a postcard …

The postcard reads:

"I never knew a woman who didn't get me into hot water".

When we always had him near
But how the Girls would love to "MASH" him
Nowadays if he were here
