Their house was up on the mountain and one got very fond of the scenery, I mean, it was really Mediterranean scenery with wonderful views of the sea. We went every evening for a walk round the back which was quite a rough walk and we’d go to the Mediterranean coast and Mummy was always quoting, ‘Nobly, nobly Cape St Vincent to the North-west died away; sunset ran, one glorious blood red, reeking into Cadiz Bay’.

So we really loved those walks and then we often had a session of being read to from a nice book before we went to bed.
