I've got my nan's diary from 1944 and I've dug it out for stuff on the V1s, in the end she and my mum and aunty went to Liverpool to escape them, which was an irony as my mum never got evacuated during the 1941 Blitz. My kids are going to have a great history project with this one daY Thursday June 15th, First doodle bug, scared me stiff, up all night Friday, 16th More doodles all day, spent most of the day under the stairs, made beds on the kitchen floor as archie on home guard (my grandad) Sat 17th, Getting a little used to doodles but can't eat or do any work, will have to buck up - will be crackers if this goes on for long Sunday 18th, No mass today, too scared, managed to cook dinner between scares, non very near it just goes on my nan's fear and then 29th 29th Joan (my Mum - about 7 then) seems to be crying all day, except when Doodles come over, then laughs hysterically The trivial things I worry about! Thanks CS for getting me to dig that out, there's loads of stuff in there that makes me realise how lucky we are
