Lisa and Neil Fletcher have transformed their home into a pre-war era dwelling. They live their lives forgoing the trappings of modern life and watch black and white TV, and a 1930s fridge, lawnmower, vacuum cleaner, and car.
They also refuse to use a card to pay for anything, use a landline not mobile phones, and wear exclusively second-hand clothes befitting of the pre-war era. Lisa, a housewife, prefers to do the washing by hand using an old-fashioned mangle while engineer husband Neil brings home the bacon.
However, the couple says their once quirky lifestyle now seems more normal, thanks to hipsters and thrifty bargain hunters plundering charity and antique shops. And it means the bargain then-unwanted retro clothes they used to buy are now far more expensive.
