My friend's sister lives in North Wales and she would hard ly know there was a war on except tor the blackout and rationing. The air raids are dreadful, but we con sole ourselves with the fact that vhe Germans are havinar them a hundred times worse.

Some people here in Chingford have been turned out of their houses for over three weeks on account of an unexpected bomb which is so large and has gone so deep down that they have not been able to get it out yet. They say it is larger than the one which was dropped by St. Paul's Cathedral. The house where Louise lives m London has been bombed twice and they had no glass in the windows for over a month. In the nrst lei. rifying experience they were all shetteiiiiir in the basement. That was at the beginning of the raids on London but since then no one stays in their houses after the blackout. Louise goes to a very mice shelter under one of the big shops and stays there urtul seven o'clock in the morning. Tom is doinff A. R.
