When I was at school, Matlock Bath Primary, we used to have air raid practise. They'd ring the alarms and we had to evacuate. there would be workmans lamps lit to mark where things were supposed to have fallen. I'd be bandaged up and pretend to be injured so everyone else could practise first aid. One day I had to have a pretend broken leg and arm. When I got home we wrapped my younger sister up in the bandages and told mum she'd fallen off the toilet wall. mum was really angry with us!
