About this listen

 That journey, Limassol to Nicosia alone in the back of an army ambulance, saw me moaning and puking with motion sickness. It was far worse than the ten day trip from Southampton to Limassol but mercifully far shorter. (Why do people say 'South Hampton', surely with only one 'H' it should be South Ampton, people don't say South Hend!).During my short stay in this new hospital I had a radio request played for me, I had asked them to play 'Claire de Lune' by Debussy for all the Mancunians stationed in Cyprus. They played the music but added that Mancunians were people from the Isle of Man! Dear Lord, and they say that the standard of education has declined since those days.!!
