‘GOSH!’ SAID WILLIAM EXCITEDLY. ‘I CAN HEAR BOMBS.’ BUT IT WAS ONLY THE BEVERTONS ARRIVING.

‘So sorry we’re late,’ she said gaily as she entered. ‘We just had to finish off our new siren suits. We’ve been working on them all day but they just needed the finishing touches, as it were. I had to get out my jewellery, too. I always like to feel I’ve got it with me, as it were. Room for a little one?’

She plunged down on to a small camp mattress next to Mr Brown, almost blocking him from view.

‘Not squashing you, I hope?’ she inquired politely.

‘Not at all,’ came the muffled voice of Mr Brown from between her and the wall of the shelter.

Bella sat down by Ethel and took out her knitting.

‘I’m making a green jumper like that one of yours,’ she said. ‘Did you get your perm?’

‘Yes. Yesterday.’

‘I shall have to have another soon if the raids keep on.’

‘Now you’d all like something to eat and drink, wouldn’t you?’ said Mrs Brown happily, setting to work on her tea equipage and adding almost mechanically. ‘I do hope Robert’s all right.’
