W O R K
Eventually I took another job in the laboratory as a laboratory assistant and worked in the development of penicillin, and we had it in bottles, that was the beginning of penicillin. I did not know whom I was working for. I was working for a Russian industrial spy. We had an association with Oxford, and all results we got in England were immediately published and he sent them directly to Russia. But I mean it was not harmful, it was on penicillin, but eventually also the laboratory was very interesting. It was in Highgate Hospital in Hampstead Heath on top of a hill, the highest point in London, and it was the time of the V1. We had glass all around us and saw the V1 coming straight over, we went under a bench, it was dangerous, nothing happened, but it could have been.
