A War Evacuee .. Twice!
Stan Chester tells us what it was like to be an evacuee - and that he had the 'pleasure' of being evacuated twice! The first time was on Sunday 3rd September, the day war broke out. With his name labelled on his jumper, he left his school gates in Ealing to Flackwell Heath nr Bourne End where a family took him for a year. Since London was not bombed during that time, he wanted to go home back to Ealing. It was a year or so later when the threat escalated that he was evacuated for the second time - but this time to Newton Abbot where he stayed for nearly 2 years .. both times without seeing his mum or dad and only receiving the occasional bit of money!
