    Memories of Broxted
    ‘The date is 1910, when as a girl of twelve years, I lived in a small village among the meadows, brooks, and endless miles of flowering hedges and trees. All was peaceful in my little village… a church, post-office, mill, school and a candy shop.

Sublime vulgarity ... almost pleasing in its wonderfully ridiculous macaronic name ...

That would be the ally Condoleeza Rice, as Secretary of State, so shamefully forgot to include in the list of the countries that stood with the US at 9/11?
