HANS: "I couldn't believe it. When I reached the corner of my street I just stood still ... It had hardly been bombed. Nothing to bomb, I suppose. Just a few rows of back-to-back houses. There were gaps like missing teeth. Fireplaces and wallpaper high up on the side of shored-up houses. It was like a dream.
