And we'd already have achieved it if everyone was as enlightened as me

If this spring were not this spring, I would have noticed sooner that today is Denholm Elliott's centenary and done something about it, but instead I coincidentally read the script of a play in which he originated a part—I had been looking for it for some time, having come to despair of ever seeing a production—and that will have to do. Have the cast of Twelfth Night of Stalag VIII-B, Elliott's Viola at center.

Whoa! His eyes are *unmistakeable*, even on a smartphone screen. It might have been worth being a POW just to watch this.

What are we meant to do about our noses, prostheses? Bitte erschießen Sie uns nicht, wir sind Touristinnen?

Gen’lethem, I have had about a sixth of a cocktail, we are all lucky I can kind of type. I considered Touristinnenen, which covers all the bases, but it sounds drunker than I am. We’d just grab the gender of the day from the racks the Breslau opera sent. You’d look amazing in the velvet suits they gave to the knickerbocker parts.
