It’s so happened that one morning I bought a newspaper and read the advertisement about the Antarctic expedition.
I was so enthusiastic about the idea of going along with them that I secretly went aboard his ship.
When the ship sank, our hearts sank with it.
Hussey often plays it to keep our spirits up.
I try to think of happier things: decent food, warm and dry clothes, a cosy bedroom, sunny days and my mother’s face.
These happy memories are soon interrupted by a sudden cold rush of air.
Without Frank , we’d all be dead by now.
Their genuine concern for others, their perseverance, and their resolve fill me with hope.
