Default Just for fun - not a recipe or a request

Hi All: This is a recording made in 1926 of a dear lady born in 1890
describing to a linguist how she makes bread. The linguist is more
interesting in her accent and dialect than the bread, but for us, it's a
bit of the history of baking from the wood-burning stove days!

Warning - she does have a heavy Northern British accent, but it's worth
listening carefully!
