I was seven years old when the war started. The things I remember are; Anderson shelters, Being wakened at all hours of the night and taken to the shelter, Gas lighting, The cast-iron fireplace, Rationing, Black-out, my oldest sister wearing the land army uniform, No fridge, No bathroom(but an inside toilet), No washing machine, Retrieving coal from the outside cellar and my mother doing the washing by hand in the wash house.
