Childhood
Patrick Howarth reads from his unpublished verse autobiography: a witty and engaging picture of the rituals of the Home Counties between the wars.
A solemn instructional session was prescribed on the mysteries of procreation.

Like those of fast bowling and the parallel bars,
Could be met by the application of right moral standards.
