Gwen Rees grew up in and spent her life in Roath. She lived on Glenroy Street for 52 Years.

I was in the Gaiety cinema and I was 8 and a half months pregnant and they sent these incendiary bombs. A sign came up on the screen to evacuate the building. I don't know how I got to my aunts house because I was so pregnant. You knew you had to get home somehow.
