My 12th year featured a camping 'holiday' too... climbing Corsican mountains and swimming in cool, clear rock pools by day while evenings found us exhaustedly chewing down tinned 'Fray Bentos' Steak and Kidney pie and maybe a treat of boiled sweets.
Major Ben Goldman it was, the school Groundsman and bizarrely the dormitory horror story teller who drove us seven unknowing schoolboys for three days down through France in his ancient LWB Landrover - that each boy took his turn at map reading probably accounted for the journey's length, and the Major's frequent losses of temper but probably it's the adventure which will stay with me longest.
Sylvia Plath (what a beautiful mind) - 'Sheep in Fog'
Ted Hughes - 'Happy Calf'
The 'Stronger than Death' Documentary was good.
Vibrant writing Ali, so much thinking swirling around inside you and you manage to crystallize it.
