One week before V E day it was announced there was to be three days holiday following the announcement. I remember hearing my teacher and the head master discussing would Saturday and Sunday count if it was announced on a Friday but we did get three days of school. On V E day I remember hearing for the first time a weather forecast and we all believed it would be accurate.

Victory slogans appeared on all the shelters such as 鈥淕OOD OLD JOE鈥�
That night my brother and I wandered about the streets with the crowds, it was wonderful to see all the windows light up black out curtains all removed. Some one light a bonfire and a large crowd all stood around singing and cheering till very late when we went home very tired.
