I've often mentioned the flowers my dad grew in our garden. Thinking what to write today, I remembered celery, white and crisp, grown in a trench banked up with soot. (How could black soot make celery white?)
This was a puzzle to me as a child but Ray has just explained that the soot kept the slugs away.
I have just downloaded the kindle version of your dad's book - it gets very good reviews. How nice you have the book to remember your dad by, and obviously very happy memories of family life too!
A good daughter you are Hazel keeping your dad's memory alive & well. He will not be forgotten while you are around that's for sure! I feel I know your dad a wee bit too after reading his amazing book. Just the everyday life of a POW but it was so very interesting, all down to the detail!
Hope you will like it, Lynda and, yes, some great reviews. If you felt like adding a review that would be great when you have finished the book. (The current kindle price is an introductory offer - a bargain I think!)
Pat, thank you. I'm glad you found my dad's diaries interesting. If you felt like giving a review on the Amazon page, that would be much appreciated.

Thank you - not a problem - will have a look!
