- Hotels are advertising for the winter – and they have bomb shelters.
- Even colleges are proud of their shelters. And the Principals are Air Raid Wardens.
- Brighton is a Safe Zone. This school still has Air Raid Shelters. People are really nervous.
- Moving on from Air Raid Shelters, the children have all been evacuated (though some are beginning to come back because nothing is being bombed yet) – here’s a photo of evacuees in Holywell, North Wales.
- Even the Zionists are real Englishmen. Just incidentally.
- But why were the Jews forced to wear the yellow badges? Here is a bit of history…
- If you were thinking of travelling – or waiting for someone to arrive – well, here’s what you need to know. Is the delay war related? ‘Navigational delays’ could mean anything.
- Making a party? Here’s a recipe for you. Um, oops, no party because a war is on? Sandwiches, then.
- The war is on, the bombs are coming, and the National Institute for the Blind is getting ready for an increase in members.
- And finally, if you thought 1939 was a long time ago, it’s not. This charity was celebrating it’s 160th birthday. If it would be around today (though I imagine with a different name…), it would be turning 239. Now that’s old.
A happy and peaceful 2019 to us all!
