Just finished the 89 page chapter, what was Hillary thinking. Next one is 5 pages. Ditto

Rather enjoying the book, I was aware of the overall picture, but the author provides lots of detail and individuals experiences. But then we came to the Coastal Command’s part in the sinking of the Bismarck, and he either glossed over the detail or got it wrong. Didn’t match the rest of the book.

I can’t remember measles being such a big deal, certainly no children being hospitalised. The bonus was two weeks of school for all but whooping cough which was six. I got it over one summer holiday.
The only one that hit our family was mumps, I caught it and shared it with my parents and sister. I can remember going into the main bedroom with all three laid up while I was on the mend. My parents suffering.

Subtle it ain’t

Certainly isn’t

Not a promising start
