On VE Day I was a student studying Architecture in central London. I was 20. I lived in student lodgings called the Mary Ward Settlement. My family were from London; my father was a GP in Wandsworth and during the war my family had experienced many things and I had taken my turn fire watching by rota and so on.
On VE Day I was in the crowd in Trafalgar Square. I remember great jubilation, a huge party and at one point we all joined in the singing of 鈥淭he Red Flag鈥.
