At the start of the war I was in the First Aid Post at Newton Mearns, when the siren went off. The drill was that I had to meet my friends at the corner of Larchfield Avenue and Firwood Road, where we would be picked up and taken to the First Aid Post.
This was before we got our tin hats.
I opened the front door, and there was shrapnel landing on the road from the Ack Ack guns in Rouken Glen, when my mother said.
"You better take an umbrella dear!" How we laughed. It was hilarious. My poor mother never lived that down.
