    A voice from when I wore a much younger man’s clothes.
    RIP Wren Chasen.

      " One Ramona crisp" became a catchphrase in my family, and as I got older and saw how the domestic mechanism operated it also became a way of having a dig(at my father) without risk of reprimand.

        A name I hadn't heard for many years but instant memories of The Navy Lark now recalled.

        Incidentally, see that Leslie Phillips is still going strong at 96!

          I'm a great lover of Radio 4 Extra, and "The Navy Lark" in particular! Heather Chasen's voices and her flirtatious dalliances with Lesley Philips are brilliant and I'm glad I can still listen to them. R.I.P. another great radio voice!
