(12 Dec 1960) Seen docking in the Thames at Deptford, a ship with a very handsome figurehead had brought over Norway's Christmas present for London. Every year, the Norwegians send a splendid Christmas tree, a token of friendship that is most welcome.

Aided by Sir Brian Horrocks, Sergeant Jones, aged 96, cut through a cheese, and the game was on. Cheese for all, wine for the guests, and there was beer for the troops. Cheese certainly raises a thirst, and an old soldier can't have too much of that!
