So lots of V1s and V2s landed in South London. They destroyed my Granny's house, and she received no compensation. I guess it is too late to claim now.
Moreover, your poor Granny lost her home and everything and claiming compensation was not even on her mind. Staying alive was. I wonder why South London was considered strategically less important?

Most interesting that story - I heard something identical with the reporting of the Iraqi Scuds on Jeddah which all fell short for exactly the same reason.
