John Matthews To escape the Blitz I was sent to Devon. I was eight years old. There, between the main beach at Paignton and the next, Goodrington Sands, is a headland, which in those days had just a few large mansions on it.

The town and its 10,000 residents were bombed 28 times, with nearby Aberdeen following closely behind at 24.
