At the time of the war, I'd be about five years old. I remember going to the 'threepenny rush' at the local cinema, the Roxy at Silverdale, one Saturday morning. During the showing of the serial called ' The Scarlet Horseman', suddenly the air-raid sirens sounded. Hundreds of kids just ran out through the emergency exits (you would never believe how fast a cinema could empty!!) When we all got home we just stood and watched the bombers going over - we never even went into the air-raid shelters!
