Remembrance Day, 11 November: our little Monday afternoon music group. After the
morning’s mournful recollections of war, cheerfully we’re comparing notes about our lives,
friends, upcoming events in town. Then we settle back in our armchairs, ready for the music.
Our hostess, Gretel Kempster, presses the button.

The chance synchronicity is like a wallop to the head. Remembrance Day. 20th
Century World........
