My mother and her family lived in Walthamstow in London at the start of the war. The two younger members of the family and my Grandma were evacuated but didn't settle and returned to London. On a visit to relations in Leicester their London home was bombed and they never returned.
My dad lived in nearby Loughborough and they met after the war at the Nottingham Palais. It seems strange to consider now that if their house had not been bombed neither I nor my children would ever have existed!
