Ray has just told me that this year exactly marks his 60th as a
Nurseryman.
So, as I feel a party coming on, what I'm wondering is whether anyone of
the
appropriate age can tell me roughly when the summer terms finished in
the
1940s in England? ;-) I think my own, in the 50s and 60s, ended in
late
July.

I can't help you out with the term times, Sacha, but please pass on my
congratulations to Ray. That's what I call dedication!

The really lovely thing is that he's enjoyed every second of it. I truly
believe he wouldn't choose another way of life for all the tea in China.

That's great. I'm sure there aren't many people who have enjoyed their
career, vocation or life nearly so much. Mind you, half the tea in China
*is* a considerable temptation .. :~))
