Wilfred also lived in rented house but on a hilltop so his home was less muddy than the rest. Each home was set out in a similar way inside, one or two rooms (one in this case) and curtained to divide the spaces. The living rooms were always jammed with furniture, only seating and in most cases the seating was just boxes or stools covered in a cloth. The rooms were all very dark with very small windows which were an open section of the wall rather than a glassed view. However in each home we were welcomed warmly, given the most comfortable seat in the room and encouraged to feel at home. We were very aware of how privileged we were to be allowed into their home.
