1939
The Blackout Breaker

WWII began and London prepared for nightly blackouts to avoid air raids.

Jed taped glow-in-the-dark stars to his window and called it ‘patriotic astronomy.’ The ARP warden fined the family one shilling. Jed offered to pay in marbles. Offer declined.

Mmm... did that actually happen?

Tell us about something that did:-)

Say "happy birthday" to Jed:-)

Or add more detail about 1939 — what happened exactly?
