The Inner Sanctum

It was approaching the end of October and my 30th birthday had slipped by, the medicals had been completed and the doctors had given the pair of us the heads up that our chest x-rays were fine, which was good news in more ways than one.

The secrecy at both our workplaces was continuing but in the outside world the news was, of course, spreading. I had told my family and had a discussion with my dad about his Uncle Frank who had gone off to Canada after the war, in addition we had brought a couple of our friends, Lynn and Graham, into the expanding loop of secrecy, mainly because we wanted them to be witnesses at the wedding.

It started off with the request for them to be witnesses and then, as we were bursting to tell someone that wasn't family, it rapidly became a full fess up.

The relief of having the pair of them in the loop was incredible, finally we could actually yabber on about the madness in our lives to a couple who could relate to our position and take our minds off it all.
