I was about four years old. I was evacuated to Wokingham for two weeks but then we went to Dunstable. My father was on the guns and searchlights in Tring. They had both been in the Terriors, and were now in the Gunners. My Mother worked for the P.O. in Dunstable and we went to live with a friend she met at the Post Office. I was too young for school and my Mother sent me to a private paid school in Dunstable (Misses Chambers 鈥淎berfeldy鈥�). I was there until after the war. Our flat in Westminster was hit by an incendiary bomb, and it was all burnt, there was nothing left. I had what they called 鈥渟helter cough鈥� through being in the air raid shelter, I think it was whooping cough.

My Father was at Al Alamein, when he came home he had no job or home. So we stayed in Dunstable and he joined my Mother at the Post Office.
