Beautiful.... well told. Armchair travel at its finest. And Killip, what can you possibly say? Did you know he went to Harvard because not a single UK university would have him? Thank you for the walk!
Thanks Søren, glad you enjoyed it. I did know he'd been at Harvard but hadn't realised that was the reason. I knew he'd always been slightly outside of the canon and never joined Magnum - I'm sure there's a story there but I can't remember it.

Give me Promotion they do Plea
I'll study Hard and pass all my Exams You'll See
With Forked Tongue they do Speak
Their results are always Far Too Weak
-
No matter how hard they Graft, Sweat & Toil
Those exam papers they will Spoil
It makes my Blood Bubble & Boil
No Reward I got for Burning the Midnight Oil
-
The World stands upon its Head
Work Hard and pass those exams they Said
Fame & Fortune you will Inherit
But now the Gold goes to those without any Merit
