My Grandad came to talk to our class about his life in the World War 2 as a boy. He told us about lots of things like what food they ate and what it was like when the bombs came down and what it was like hiding in the old mines under ground. He told us that he had been evacuated from his home and he had to leave his family behind so he set of to the countryside. He was sent to a farm where there a woman and 3 children. The woman did not let my Grandad go to the bathroom inside so he had to go outside, even in the winter.
He found life in the country hard at first and he did not like the food, but after a few weeks he got used to every thing. He had never seen a cow or never had a sat under a tree and just hear the birds and the wind. He loved it. But after a long time it had to end. He was glad to go home but he was sad to leave the countryside. He said his goodbyes and he went home to his family. He found that home was a very different place from what he remembered. The streets were dark and black at night. There would be no lights unless they had all their windows boarded up. My grandad and his family made it through the war.
