Questions were not a thing in my house!
I would have loved to have asked my gran about her life, but this was taboo and in any case, had I asked, I doubt I could have trusted any of the answers!!
I don't know how any of them celebrated their 21st birthdays except that it wouldn't have involved any partying or alcohol. Mum kept a card her father drew for hers (towards the end of WW2), but I've not seen it for years so it may not have survivied her dementia.
