    4 chapters in, it's been a while since I've read it so I'll let you know, lots of references to Lanc's coming back with tree branches and leaves stuck in the radiators!!!

    Brief reference to Derwent Water then straight into the raid, lots of references to 'Northern lakes' the book was written in 1951 so perhaps the use of these areas was still classified??
