who lives, who dies, who tells your story?

Thinking about a Narnia fic I might write (ought to write: I need to remember how to deal with aggravation through writing fic rather than pulling my hair out and plotting to stab people) involving Lucy stealing an ambulance in the middle of an air raid, so I'm showing a real lack of commitment to getting work done researching Blitz records. So far, most of what I'm turning up on the bombing information is limited to the official dates of the Blitz, 7 September 1940 to 10 May 1941. I'm sort of assuming that the evacuation that took the Pevensies out of London was not the false alarm one of 1939, but over the period of the heaviest bombing, but I'm wondering when they might have returned. It seems that in February 1941, there was the highest number of evacuees from London (about 1.37 million), which had come down to 1 million by September.

It would be best to set the story during the summer of 1941, and some articles seem to indicate that there was occasional bombing happening during that time, but I can't find an actual list of dates and locations ANYWHERE. Though I suppose I could just make the chaos happen from an unexploded bomb rather than from one falling from the sky, but still.

Though this comprehensive list of bombs from 7 September 1940 is fascinating and somewhat overwhelming.

I mean, the easy way out is to just set it in 1943 or so when Hitler was dropping doodlebugs, I guess, but I didn't want it to take place too long after The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

Anybody else happen to have any useful links?

I also came across this poster, also known as The Time Lucy and Susan Had To Sit on Peter So He Didn't Completely Lose It At A Firefighter And Get Everyone Bound And Gagged And Left In A Tube Station.

Oh, SHOW. My thoughts totally aren't any more coherent today but I'm not falling over in a pile of drunken giggling invective, so that's something.

Now I'm more like this sort of giggling mess.
