SUMMONER'S TALES...
"On Sunday mornings my dad would take my brother and me down to the quayside to look at the boats. I remember my father gazing dreamily up at the wheelhouse and the ropes securing the bows of the ships to the quay. Go to sea! my father would always tell me, but I know now he was really speaking to himself as a younger man, and ruing his landlocked captivity."
