I have some questions about London during the opening years of WWII (1939-1942, mostly). I found this forum while hunting for answers to those questions, so perhaps you fellows might be able to help me.

- When did England start making preparations for war?

- What was rationed in England, in terms of -

- Consumer-goods.
- Food.
- Fuel.
- etc (anything else you can think of).

- What was the timeline of the Blitz and major bombing-incidents on London?

- Where might I be able to find recordings of air-raid sirens (for "raid" and "all clear" etc).

**More questions may follow in days to come**
