SUMMARY:Homes & Hygiene in Marvellous Smellbourne
DESCRIPTION:Those of us living in modern Western cities mostly take personal hygiene for granted. We have access to abundant fresh (and safe) water\, more varieties of soap and other cleaning products then we can possibly need and easy access to a bathroom on a daily basis. Indeed\, the average home in Australia in 2023 apparently had 2.6 bathrooms. That is almost one each! But imagine if we had none of these things. What would daily life be like? \nJoin Margaret Anderson as she examines the grubby realities of life in Melbourne before 1900\, and then charts the changes that the twentieth century brought to homes and hygiene.
