Game 19, Round 2, lines
OK my intrepid crew, haul your minds out of the Antarctic ice long enough to stop by sun-soaked Corfu and decide between the several offerings which is the real first line of My Family and Other Animals. Lines below the cut here :
1 - July had been blown out like a candle by a biting wind that ushered in a leaden August sky.
2 - It was Larry who began it all.
3 - Most English families are happy with a dog or two.
4 - “Really, dear,” Mother said, “I’m not sure a donkey is entirely appropriate.”
5 - Mother said, optimistically, that Corfu would be "An education."
6 - It was all going well until Mother saw the lizards.
7 - Out of my entire family, I seemed to be the only one who was actually pleased about our moving to Corfu.
8 - It all started with a rabbit.
9 - Corfu was British for almost half a century, but my family moved there much later.
