At this time the Germans were really hungry, they were really starving and unfortunately Auntie’s three cats and her dog all vanished. I remember one day my cousin and I got up in the morning and we called the cats as we used to do and they didn’t come. When we went outside we saw this trail of blood so we knew what had happened because we had heard a bother. I remember the two of us hand in hand going down the road and following the blood and it went off to one of the fields where the billet was so we were frightened to walk any further and we came back home. That I remember very well.
