I was seven when war broke out and living in Churchdown, near Gloucester.

During the war I witnessed a German Junkers 88 bomber mistakenly bombing Hurrans garden nursery instead of the Rotol Aircraft factory.

Three bombs fell from the aircraft, one of 1,000 pounds, one smaller and one that didn鈥檛 explode. The Germans also machine-gunned the area. I believe two people died at the nursery.
