The following quote is from THE FINAL CURTSEY   by the Queen’s cousin, Margaret Rhodes:  ENJOY!

“in order to save on vital supplies, we were only allowed three inches of water in the bath and the King commanded that a black line be painted as a sort of ablutionary Plimsoll line.  It was, of course, impossible actually to regulate this and I’m sure there were many who totally ignored His Majesty’s attempt to impose water rationing.  Often there air raids, and the Page would come in, bow, and announce:  ’Purple warning Your Majesty’, the signal that the Luftwaffe was zooming in.  I remember one particularly heavy attack when we all had to go to the shelter.  We were roused in the middle of the night and first taken to the King and Queen’s bedroom where I think I saw the King take a revolver from the drawer of his bedside table.  It was a defensive precaution bearing in mind the possibility of an enemy parachute drop aimed at His capture.  I know too that Queen Elizabeth practised revolver shooting in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, particularly after the Palace was bombed, which meant huge numbers of rats ran free, so she was able to practise on moving targets!”
