The things you find out about folk when you spend a couple of weeks with them...
It is possible, but could only be speculation, that we travelled the whole tour with a lovely lady who daily filled her water bottle with a wee tipple, to make the day a little more bearable. At our lunch stop prior to going up the Gallipoli Peninsula, she commented that this would be the last wine for 24 hours, so she was planning to 'wring it out'. I just chuckled, thinking that I had not actually even seen her drink much (that, but also I was feeling her pain!!! With ya sister!!). Turns out, she had been topping up the whole way and what we took for older lady innocence, with a sweet, disconnected smile at times was infact something quite different!!
