And it certainly didn't help my late grandfather when the generous people of Britain let him in (mid-1939).

He was immediately arrested and sent, with his wife, to an internment camp on the Isle of Man, a small island just off the north-west coast of England. The same happened to many Jews fleeing the holocaust.

It was a little while before the British authorities realised he was harmless and after that he was made very welcome.

Best wishes to all,
Mike
