4. HANDWRITING COMPETITIONEntry FormPlease use either black or blue ink or a sharp pencil.Julian Sedgwick has chosen this extract from Dylan Thomas' A Child's Christmas in Wales "Bring out the tall tales now that we told by the fire as the gaslight bubbled like a diver. Ghosts whooed like owls in the long nights when I dared not look over my shoulder; animals lurked in the cubbyhole under the stairs and the gas meter ticked. And I remember that we went singing carols once, when there wasn't the shaving of a moon to light the flying streets. At the end of a long road was a drive that led to a large house, and we stumbled up the darkness of the drive that night, each one of us afraid, each one holding a stone in his hand in case, and all of us too brave to say a word. The wind through the trees made noises as of old and unpleasant and maybe webfooted men wheezing in caves. We reached the black bulk of the house. 'What shall we give them? Hark the Herald? ''No,' Jack said, 'Good King Wencelas. I'll count three.’ Please return your handwriting entry to:The Library, St Faith's School, Trumpington Road, Cambridge CB2 8AG or email kljohnson@stfaiths.co.ukCLOSING DATE FOR ENTRIESFriday 24th March 2023
