his books were immense influence in my mid teens back in the 70's..

cant remember much about them now..

but in one of the books.. something about freezing water maybe ????

was a description of an old married couple on an aeroplane..

cant remember why..
but at that time..
something about the way he wrote about them affected and amused me deeply..

now i guess in all possibility..

me and the mrs may have become that couple ..


weird old world !!!??
