We went to school at the Cobo Mission Hall. Parents were allowed to plant vegetables at the side of the Hall, it was mostly turnips. The mothers had a rota and each day we children were taken across the road into a cottage and given a bowl of watery turnip soup. That’s what we had nearly every day, and that’s what kept us going.
