Wilde Travel

Does, as Wilde said, too much foreign travel dull the mind? I am about to find out. This week it is Bosnia followed by 10 days in Haiti punctuated only by a little public speaking in the UK. I will blog extensively on both Haiti and Bosnia on my return. I still maintain that the strangest people I have ever met (and I have been to some strange places) are the french.

I must bhowever mention my music of the week which is anything by Funkadelic. But particularly the 'Hardcore Jollies' album and 'Maggot Brain'. George Clinton still doesn't get the credit he should. He was, and is, completely mad (in the same way as Lee 'Scratch' Perry) but endearingly so. If I ever go mad I hope it is the same way as those guys.
