Diary of Phyllis Bethel of Topsham Devon

An account of her travels with her husband and her daughter Marion from Wiesbaden in Germany and the Second World war in Topsham Devon as written in her diaries between 1929 and 1953.

8th April 1941

9.15pm sirens. 10.00pm all clear and another alert from 2-2.30am but I let the family sleep through it. Ann came and offered us another kitten as a cat belonging to a woman who already has six cats, was going to have kittens and Ann said she would have too many if she kept kittens also!
Daddy has made several pretty chairs,one a rocking chair for Ann. She is always bringing us wild flowers. It is awfully difficult to remain quiet and not call to Bertie when I hear sirens at night, but I do not want to wake Marion unnecessarily.
