Being An Evacuee
A Memory of Ringland.
My brother and I were welcomed into the farming family of Mr and Mrs Skeet, where we stayed for nearly 3 years. Coming from London and the bombing to the freedom of the village took a bit of getting used to. We were soon collecting eggs in the yard and delivering milk around the village. All the other evacuees gradually went home . We were the last to leave. My experience of farm life has stayed with me. I have since always lived in villages. I feel deep gratitude to the family who gave me a home and kept me safe.
