WHATEVER IT WAS - IT WAS SAID IN THE Sentinel! JAMES - IT WAS AN HONOUR Oliver T. D. Scruton writes: When I was 12, I founded, edited and wrote a was shocked, surprised, scared, weekly newspaper which I named, The Weekly Whisperer. It was terrible, but or a mix of all three.

I’d print it using my dad’s printer and then charge him for the pleased to see me. He was privilege of reading it. It didn’t last many issues – probably due to the always pleased to see me. His disgruntled owner of the printer objecting to me using up all the coloured ink! I face lit up just as it did the last hope I sent copies to my uncle, James, but sadly I don’t remember. Regardless, time I saw him in December. I know he’d have been proud. He started young too. My mum, his sister, tells All in all, there’s a lot of James stories of James making his own publications as a child. He’d handwrite them, living in me. He is a part of me. copy them out several times in order to send it around, and keep a copy for himself. After a while, he got a John Bull Printing Outfit and he’d spend hours using tweezers to delicately place tiny letters in a slide to print his paper. Then he started ‘borrowing’ my mum’s baby typewriter. He broke the F key. Mum was furious! F, the first letter of her name meant it was, in her eyes, the worst key he could’ve broken. He was banned from borrowing her stuff! Eventually, he got a portable typewriter and spent countless hours producing these marvellous publications, none of which survived I’m sad to say. The good news is that the Sentinel is archived and I have no doubt I could get my hands on any issue I liked – especially as most are immortalised online. Newspaper production isn’t the only thing I got from James. Somehow in our shared DNA, I have inherited a voice similar to his, which was resonant and Oliver T. D. Scruton sonorous. Mine’s not a carbon copy by any means but I’m told it has some of the same hallmarks. Much like James, I’ve often been asked to narrate a play or THANKS TO ALL read aloud. I remember when I was about 8 and we lived abroad, I was asked to narrate a play in German There are many people to thank: Maggie Silver of Salts Mill who followed immediately by steadfastly supported the Jack and the Beanstalk in Sentinel.
