    (As I’m in Glasgow, Scotland, I’m not commenting to be in the running for a giveaway!)

    While the Garibaldi book looks to be fully silly, I have to admit that now I need to run down a copy. The artist’s rendering of his face is very good — I’m working on some research on the man himself, and have to chuckle at his real connection to the “squashed fly” cookie!

    I was intrigued by your review of When the Whistle Blows, so I’d love to put my name in the hat for that one – if you please.
