Somewhere on my audio shelves is his reading of Under Milk Wood. <br /><br />As to first aid, and please feel free to laugh at me, I did it all. The Heimlich and mouth to mouth and heart and stuff. When I say "I did it all" I mean I was taught the HOW. Please, dear God, never let me be in position where I may have to put into practice what I learnt in theory. Come to think of it I may go for a refresher. Just in case.
