The Dare

On air on the last Tuesday of April: Fah reads a message formally, the library club in Thonburi invites the Captain to read stories aloud; me? read aloud; you don't dare, do you; is that a dare; it is, you won't manage it; all right then, I accept the dare; Grandma on the line: he'll manage, he'll read my proverbs first; yes, Grandma, I'll go for sure: a dare and accepting it, with the club's words.
