MARGARETTING – “SOMEWHERE in England” WORLD WAR 2 1939-1945 & THROUGH TO TODAY









































Post War In 1943 my father dropped bombs on the continent I remember my mother talking about bananas in 1944 when it rained, creeping alone to the windowsill, I stared up the hill watching, watching, watching without a blink for the Mighty Bananas to stride through the blitz they came in paper bags in neighbours’ hands when they came, and took their time over the coming and still I don’t know where my father flying home took a wrong turning
