Read by John Westbrook (1) For personal reasons, though the times were unpropitious, John How ard wanted badly to go for a fishing holiday in France. He went fishing for the first time in the hamlet of Cidoton on 29 May. He came back that evening tired and happy, had dinner and went to bed. In that way he missed the first broadcasts of the evacuation of Dunkirk. For it was the early summer of 1940. (Music: Sibelius's 5th Symphony) long wave only
