“When I knew her she used to sit over the radio,
listening to the morse, in the hope of picking
up one of the German U-Boats that thronged
the South African coast.
This she regarded as her duty to the “Old Country”
which she referred to as “Home.”
She used to explain to me that although I came of
good English stock (for which I should be grateful),
the fact that I had been born in South Africa
(which was unfortunate) meant that I would
always be a Colonial!”
