Do you remember dancing to ’In the Mood’ during the Second World War? If you do, you’ll no doubt share in some of the author’s memories of moonlight, music and romance, which she records in this diary as she looks back over her life.She takes us on a fascinating journey starting from her boarding school convent education in the hills of India. Then she shares with us her personal experiences of the war years when she danced the night away with handsome young men in uniform once her war work was over for the day.But these were the days of her youth and now she is no longer young in a world which, as she says, ’has no time for old age’. The elderly must help themselves and each other, but the best advice the author can offer is - to keep dancing!
