The blitz of London started in the afternoon of the seventh of september 1940. I was In Regents Park with friends when the German bombers appeared over London. We ran for home, but we had to take shelter because of the bombing. The raid that after noon set the lLondon docks on fire and that included the east end of London and the city. The raids continued into the night the bombers using the fires to guide them in. From then on the nightly raids continued over the next two years.
