GEORGE SAYS

Harry's gone. I am undone. He has left a gap which cannot be filled.

Thursday night he had a phone call from Marvin, his boss (Head of Station, Bagdhad).It seems the CIA now think that the man in custody who they believed was Saddam Hussein may, in fact, not be the tyrant!
Harry is the only member of the CIA who went to school with Saddam. Admittedly, Harry was only in the first form at 'Bagdhad High' whilst Saddam was in the upper sixth - and Head Boy. Nevertheless, it is believed that he would remember details that an imposter could not possibly know. Hence his recall, in order to interrogate the prisoner.

Harry tells me that his family lived in Bagdhad for a few years, whilst his father was sourcing sand for the giant B & Q chain, during the hey-day of DIY, just after the war.

Anyway, he is gone. But I have happy memories.

The vicar called round. He wants me to do the Jam stall again.
