But the blacks did not move into a smaller house. It did not come into their to do so. The old house had always been their from the first day of their home. Father and Mother had lived their from the first day of their married life, and the two children has spent all their days there. There they were, and there were likely to be in the years to come. Modern and new houses were short in the days that followed the war, and Black himself found the situation of the old place very satisfactory because he ran an office in the High Street, and he would walk in from his work not more than five minutes. This saved him time, money and trouble and he thought himself a very happy man in his respect.
