Suzy Most of what you say is true
In the UK when I was a kid, we had a bath in front of the fire and all five boys and two girls shared the water 
We had to buy meat daily as there were no fridges. 
Mum made the bread, and yes we went down the road and watched Charllie Chaplin Silent movie at the Sally Army Hall 
So you see you where not far off the mark 
PS
Food such as Meat, Butter, Sugar and even lollies was on Ration till 1952
and TV did not come in till about that time as well

.... and I thought I was having a dig at him and went too far back.
Crikey, I'm not sure about that bath water, Ron.
