Well, we were so many.

We only had one pot for the loo,

and in the morning there was everything in there,

and you can imagine what it looked like then.

Nobody brought in different straw mattresses.

With the food it was just the same.

In the morning it was a thin soup or coffee, which you couldn’t even smell – that was tea;

at 10 am we got a dry piece of bread for the whole day.

For dinner there was soup again,

with some lentils, oats or

whatever was left over from the stalks of cabbage, which you couldn’t even chew.

That was our lunch.

In the evening it was coffee again.

In prison

I was in prison as well. There was a raid.

Somebody had said – that was at the end of October – we were having contacts.

Once there was one, she was imprisoned as well, she always said:

“If something happens, would you want to come with us?”

So I asked: “Well, what’s going on? Yes.” “You will see.“

Something was given away, allegedly.
