On this crisp autumn day 40 years ago I called round at a friends house in Sheffield for a days surfing on the east coast . Some of us felt an ambiguity about the morning news of the bomb in Brighton during the preceding early hours. It is strange how some events stay with you over the years. The surf was fridgid and enticing.
Here Matt, Rory Carroll has written an interesting book on the Brighton Bombing. It’s called Killing Thatcher. In case you’ve not read it.
Awesome, thanks Malcolm. I'm going to read that
Was about to say the same thing! It’s a stunner
Sounds brilliant. And if either of you have yet to read Say Nothing then get on it straight away. Outstandingly good.
I have a 13 hour flight to Chile on Monday, so this is ideal timing!

I also remember that morning vividly and I was only 8!
