After a delicious local yogurt we are dropped off at the American club which sports an excellent swimming pool complete with de rigeur thatched shades. After a brief wait we are rewarded with banana seats and begin a days decline.
Above us the hot sun from which we are bethatched powers the updrafts into which the sea eagles lazily slide and wheel. Two soar over us, it is impossible to imagine such grand birds asking for frites so I assume they are checking our white bodies out to become the objects of chat back at the nest.
I read of women married to royal men and vice versa, mostly vice, as well expect power to corrupt some times love can be found amongst the affairs of state....did Wallis Simpson really order Ed VII to publicly remove her dirty little shoes/? Could the poor princess stabbed with a file as she boarded the ferry across Lac Leman have ever known her assailant? Histories filled with human detail and a tragic lack of sexual knowledge or relationship therapy.

Why are the women in history so seemingly absent and yet upon research prove their 50% many times over.
