The diary of an evacuee!

By 10oliverr

Dear diary,

Today was one of the most terrifying days of my whole entire life! I had to be evacuated to the countryside because of the war, I really didn’t want to though. It started when my mother got a letter about evacuations, I had to be evacuated! They sent me off to the train station, I got to have a shoe box of things with a maximum of ten things. I packed everything and off I went. The train was boring and I met no new friends but I couldn’t wait to see who was looking after me. Finally I stepped off the speeding fast train, I was here!

 

A strange lady came up to me and told me to come with her, I was weary at first but I followed her with some other children. She said that she was going to take us to our new homes! Was him or her going to be nice or not? We were walking for a very long time, I was scared! I saw lots of people leave before me. A long time later the billeting officer took me to a door, this was mine!

 

The man I met was very nice, his name was Tom. When I walked in he got me something to eat, he got me a luxury: bacon and eggs! I couldn’t eat it all but mother told me to be polite. Later that evening we watched the fire roar. I went to bed after this I was excited, we might have some fun tomorrow.

Dear Diary,

Today I was awoken by blaring sirens, so I knew the battle was still on. My heart was a bit calmer than yesterday although it was still pounding quite hard.

When I found my bearings I realized I was in a hide-out and, I had a gas mask tied tightly onto my face it also smelled horrible.We needed to get out of the hide-out though because, a German spitfire was lurking around the area. I could hear it above circling menacingly.

Along our way I could hardly keep up with the rest of the bunch, so me and my little sister walked slowly for a bit, we were exhausted. As we were walking, we came across a plane that had crashed! It had the English flag on it as well!

My little sister, Ella, was so scared that she shook from head to toe. I comforted her and whispered “Everything will be fine,” and we walked closer to the plane. It had loads of food on it! Everybody had been starving for days and finally there was food! I could hardly believe my eyes, there were juicy apples and lots more exciting goodies. Ella and I shouted everyone and we all ate until dark.

I had a weird but cool day at the same time,  i’ll speak to you soon- Bye.

Dear Diary,                                                                                                     Today I woke up through the sound of an explosion! My heart pounded so hard I thought it was going to burst! Reluctantly, I sat up and looked out my window. I saw St Paul’ s Cathedral crumble before my eyes!

The night before on the radio, I heard a man saying that we were at war with Germany, so I thought this was the beginning of it. It turned out to be it WAS!

I felt motionless but yet felt tears gushing down my face. Then my whole body shook out as another bomb hit the floor! I thought to myself ‘me and my family are going to die’!   I cowardly stepped back to my door.

In this war, I saw spitfire planes, huge bombs and hurt people, I really thought this was the end ! Tell you some more info tomorrow, Bye.
