RANDOM QUOTATIONS NUMBER 1


Following on the Quote a Day theme I thought I would put up some random quotations from time to time, and readers can guess if they wish the identity of  the authors. The photographs have no connection with the subject except this one is taken in England.

Yes, he learned his craft walking the mean streets of Dulwich College. Others who faced the dangers in that distinguished establishment are PG Wodehouse, AEW Mason [Four Feathers], CS Forester [The Gun], Tom Rob Smith [Child 44] and a certain bearded blogger.

Mind you I don't think he learned to seduce a duchess at Dulwich.
