Overview Ratings & Reviews

This is a collection of short stories about incidents that have occurred during my life. Several contain swear words and words of a sexual nature, and most of them are true. The exceptions are “The Cruise,” which is mainly fiction, and “Don’t Wave – We’re British,” which was told to me by an oppo.
In the story “I Don’t Like Corn Flakes,” I explain why I didn’t like them the way my father dished them up. Have you ever been frightened by your mother? I loved my mother very much, but when I was a child, she frightened the life out of me, as in “Mum’s New Spectacles.”
Have you ever yearned for something that you couldn’t have? I always fancied a bloater (smoked herring) but never did get the chance to have one when I was young.
Some ladies with whom I have associated have no regard for husbands or boyfriends, so it was not unlikely

that the first girlfriend I met sent me a Dear John as soon as I volunteered for the Navy.
This book could (if I wanted) be divided into three sections: before the war, during the war, and post-war.
