Ah! the Wolf. We lived in the very top of the building, practically in the roof space. Two rooms, living room and bedroom, opening onto a public landing. Because the rooms were in the roof, the ceiling sloped from about seven feet on one side, down to about three feet on the other and the room was only about ten feet wide anyway, so there was a definite art to living there. One morning we where in bed and these two old Frau's wondered into our bedroom and sat down and started to have a chinwag. Couldn't understand the lingo, of course and, being so embarrassed because we where both starker's, we just lay there gripping the bedclothes to our throats until they finished there natter and left. We left the Wolf, permanently, about three days later.
Next port of call, so to speak, was the house behind the gun sheds (Herr Schroer was the landlord) and one of our neighbours, I recall, was 'Curly' Weever and his wife. Curly was in 94 Bty I think at that time. We came home on leave not long after moving in there and, for some reason I can't remember, Norma didn't come back with me after that leave. A few months passed and she came back to Lippstadt but because of a cock up with the accommodation I had arranged in Bad Westernkotten, She ended up lodging with Les Charlton and his lovely wife, Julie, until the Canadian couple who where occupying our flat, moved on. A favour Norma and I will, both, never forget. The move from Les's quarter to our new flat I would have loved to witness. Unfortunately, this took place during an exercise and I wasn't available to organise it but the lads in the MT section stepped in and laid everything on for us. Wonderful, great guys, you will agree? The only thing is, they sent a f****ing Stalwart and you know there is only one way to get into a 'Stolly'!!! and this is the heyday of the mini skirt........... basterds! Still, Norma enjoyed the experience and didn't seem too bothered by it. Never did find out just who the voyeuristic pair of twats were though. Care to own up anyone?
