If I were Mr Rogers in 'And Then There Were None', and was paying attention to the morbid rhyme on the dining room wall, as he was - I would simply not have gone outside to chop up sticks when there had already been 3 victims.
Definitely within his rights to leave it, I'd say.
@footballandwar.bsky.social has just finished reading this excellent book and highly recommends it. Also, as per Christmas tradition watched the film again over the festive period!
I'm on the 'It Was What It Was', the very excellent football pod with @jonawils
& @draper_rob talking about the book and 'Escape to Victory' in general.
I had a lovely, Christmassy time, and I hope you do too.
