For Children of All Ages
' Green Sailors and Blue Water' by Gilbert Hackforth-Jones
4— 'A Quiet Night in Harbour '
Produced by David Davis
' After the story I told you last week, Uncle George decided that it was time we went West for the last part of our holiday. If you remember, the weather wasn't very friendly last year, and there was a lot of westerly wind, so that it was easier to say " Let's go to the West Country! " than to achieve it. We set out with moderate south-westerly wind, and got safely past St. Albans Head and Portland Bill. It was when we were halfway from anywhere that the weather worsened ...'
5.50 Children's Hour prayers conducted by the Rev. Glyn Parry-Jones
