The~~ file is dated 2004-03-19. --[~~[User:Woozle\|Woozle~~]~~] 16:25~~, ~~15 May 2008 (UTC)~~		[[category:history]][[category:extended family]][[category:family/history]]Presumably JERS sent this to me; the file I have is dated 2004-03-19. JERS's niece Rosalind clarified the context a bit in 2022:
			<blockquote>
			This is a timeline which Ben constructed for us (with some really nice photographs), after our cousin Rosamund had done family research and produced a detailed family tree. [...] You will see that it is mostly concerned with Daphne and Eric. Ben included some extracts from a handwritten memoir which Dad wrote and which my nephew Cassius now has. Unfortunately Dad did not keep it up and it goes not much further than the WWII sections you can see. I don't think I knew it existed until after he had died. The Sutclliffes and Du Canes are my cousins in Pilley Bailey near Lymington in the New Forest, nearby East Boldre is the small village where Ben was born and where Dad's ashes were scattered. Ben told me he had put this timeline on the net somewhere, which is obviously where Woozle came across it.

[D in a letter to Marjorie]
Commisioner’s House Trincomali Oct 1933

On the top verandah..it is fairly cool & undisturbed, though the people going by along the road are rather distracting. I can see the sea, a placid whitish blue & a hot strip of sand. The house is hemmed in by trees & mother has a regular jungle of shrubs in pots. I have had a bathe this morning before breakfast & Elizabeth has been sketching. She is very brave: the other day we went to the market with Augustine the cook & she started sketching. The whole market rose as one man & clustered round at her elbow! Augustine came along & let out a few oaths & the crowd thinned a bit.......We dined on board the Colombo their last night. Elizabeth & I feel like film stars trailing up & down companion-ways & in & out of launches with masses of handsome(?) white clad officers saluting all over the place!

1934 Jan. D.returns UK [March 6 Craven Hill Gdns?]

Sept 1 Ben evacuated to Timsbury nr.Bath
Sept 3 WW2 declared
“I had visualised swarms of bombers, showering death and destruction on London and thought gladly of Benedick safe in SDomerset. We had waited in the hall downstairs, the apprehension in our hearts. A lorry driver had stopped his lorry in the street outside and came in to shelter in the hall. He had said, ‘I didn’t think Hitler would start as soon as this’. Later we had walked across Hampstead Heath to Jack Straw’s Castle to catch the bus, feeling very self-conscious with our new gas-masks in their cardboard boxes slung across our shoulders. Hampstead Heath had looked much as it had always looked on a Sunday. The anti-aircraft guns, the allotments, the rubble of London’s bombed buildings filling the sandpits by the Spaniard’s Road were yet to come.”
November Ben back to London then to
December Aspley Guise
1940 June D&E&B @Liverpool,Croxteth Grove,Sefton Park.
then D&B @Vron “that was a wonderful summer, it was difficult to imagine the horror of the war.But the army had taken over part of the New Brighton beach, there were hundreds of French sailors in Liverpool’s streets looking a bit forlorn; there were tank barriers and barbed wire on the roads to Chester and into Wales and later in the streets of Liverpool itself, round the docks and the Mersey Tunnel entrance. We went to a fire station to hear a short lecture on fire bombs and to learn how to use a stirrup pump. (Benedick liked working the hose!) One night the sirens went and we sat in the cellar of the house - Benedick enjoyed that too! - feeling a little tense and helpless and nnot knowing quite what to expect. A plane droned somewhere and we waited...and then the sirens sounded the all-clear and we went to bed. Yes, the sun shone that summer on the yet unmarked face of England. The force that had smashed the face of Europe was gathering for the crowning blow..but we did not know...the vicious strength of that blow nor the inadequacy of our own strength. How could we? The sun had shone on England so long and we were warm with it, drugged. Our awakening was to come.”(April 25 1942)

August D&E&B @Canfield Gardens, Finchley Road
Sept 6th. move to 15 Cannon Place, Hampstead.
