People living in the Milton Keynes area forty years ago came under
the auspices of three towns, thirteen villages and a country
council. Many changes have taken place in this time and it is the
people, whose experiences and reminiscences are recorded here, who
have shaped the area into the remarkable city it is today. 'Wives
did not work. Their job was to stay at home, keep it clean and
tidy, look after the children and make sure there was a cooked meal
on the table when the husband got home from work. There was no such
thing as microwaves and washing machines. If you were lucky you had
a Goblin vacuum cleaner. All the meals were cooked with fresh
vegetables and the pies were home made.' All contributions come
from the oral archives kept at the Living Archive of Milton Keynes
which has been collecting reminiscences from city residents since
1975, and are complemented by 100 photographs from their
collection.
