I am afraid All the time 1 avoided the other Side of the we Call it the Morae aspect i suddenly remembered a Story told me by my Yousf brother who once came Back from Egypt in the same ship As the German Crown Prince. A gymkhana was arranged and the program Rome included a tug of War services is civilians. brother Wal was Anchor Man of his team. In the Middle of the pull the Crown Prince who was rooting for the services Sud Denly had a Bright idea. He ran Forward and earnestly in a harsh whisper tried to persuade my brother surreptitiously to hitch the rope end round a convenient Bollard. 4 i was pretty puffed stated Walter but i gasped out that i said anyhow what do you know about he said not As much As you but More than Little Willie i think. Walter proved that he knew As much As there is to know about that sense. All the same i was within limits quite serious in my suggestion to von Ribbentrop and if Ever i meet him again i shall remind him of it.
