When we reached Paris they didn’t have a penny. No money, nowhere to sleep, nowhere to go. They went to the Jewish area, ‘The Pletzl’, & met a friend who said ‘If you haven’t got anywhere to sleep, the big synagogue, La Victoire, is empty. Just squat there.’ So that’s what we did. He started working a bit, tailoring. They got a bit of money together, rented a room. The sewing machine & pressing table in the workshop. One room was their bedroom, the other was the dining room. That’s where I used to sleep in a convertible. You took down the bed from the wall. They worked! They worked so hard. I don’t think today people know what working hard is. I would go to sleep at night, they would still work. I would wake up in the morning, they were already working. They just worked & worked & worked. They made beautiful things. I’ve still got samples of what they made for me. Oh, I was very well dressed, yes. I was well fed. At that stage, food was very important. That was one thing we, we had. We had a lot of food & they certainly dressed me well. They thought I needed to look like a little princess. All parents think that… but they did.
