Our mother was worried when our father was going out to see if any incendiary bombs had been dropped during an air raid and told him to put my sisters enamel potty on his head as a "tin hat" as he had no other.
He reinforced the celler so we could use it during an air raid before Anderson Shelters were provided.Later we did have an Anderson Shelter in the garden.
