Plucked this from my library one of Bruce's no doubt.
The biography of an English adventurer, and a highly decorated soldier.

As Simona is off to Bucharest I happened upon this interesting fact on
horse driven taxis there by Skoptis'. Their falsetto voices interested Paddy Fermor as it did me.

After having a couple of kid's, the husband then castrates himself.... 8)

"takes all sorts I suppose!


"The Salvation of Mankind lies in making everything the responsibility of All"
Sophocles.
