Just a few doors away was Bill Keast, he was the watch repairer in the village. Jordan's Bakery was next to Bill, where we could get fresh bread and cakes daily. I was rescued from a fire in our front room one day by Jan Murrin who had looked in our front room window and spotted the clothes which were drying in front of the fire were well alight, he came in and took me up to the bakery where I was spoilt just a little.
