(The average house price has risen from just over £600 when she was born in 1926 to £291,000 today.
To put that into perspective, a pint of milk cost the equivalent of 1.3p in 1926 and is only 42p today, a rise of 3,131%. However, if the price of milk had risen in line with property prices it would cost £612.57 a pint.
47,000% ! If only my income had increased that much.)
