London....again.......

I wonder if there will be one for Coventry? Liverpool, Sheffield? Hull? Birmingham?

Anyone would think only the Londoners GOT bombed.

That brings back memories!
I lived near Biggin Hill as a kid.Plenty of old bomb craters to play in.
Amazing how big some of them were,15ft deep x 30ft across.It gave you some idea of the power of those things.Also we used to have an amazing collection of shrapnel.

I worked with a chap who's Dad was German.
He used to wind people up by saying his Dad was in the Luftwaffe & came over here after the war as a bricklayer as there was plenty of work!:D

Who said the Germans don't have a sense of humour?

Seen the disclaimer saying that that map may not be acurate. Looks like someone went crazy with the clicking of pins on a map
Is each dot a bomb landing or target?

I would say it shows where the bombs landed.The craters I saw where usually in the middle of fields or in woods.The map shows craters where I remember them being.
