Someone gave me a Moleskin diary for Christmas 2004 and 'lo and behold' there was a slip 'bigging up' Moleskin banging on about how Bruce uses them on his travels - go figure!

Major fan of Bruce Chatwin, however he wasn't born in Wales. Not sure about his heritage. I certainly thought he was Welsh when I started reading him. He just has that feel of a Welshman. But he was from the midlands.
