In the years following World War II, with a growing family and a business to run, I did not spend much time thinking abour my warcime experiences. Then, in 1995, as part of the fiftieth anniversary celebrations to mark the end of the war in Europe, a number of newspapers suggested that readers write to the editor with their story of VE Night, 1945. I did not write to a newspaper; insread 1 wrote to che owner of the Cock Hotel in Stony Stratford (now pan of Milton Keynes), where I had lived and worked during the war. I tried to put down in writing for him how we had so very energetica.lly celebrated VE night in the hotel with the owners of the time.
