I wonder if Ursula managed to stop RVW eating bikkies/cookies? I once read that a visitor in earlier days, when RVW's first wife Adeline was alive, was amazed that RVW was just about the tallest and bulkiest person he'd ever encountered, and ate biscuits continuously during their conversation. Also RVW and A had a pet BADGER which wandered around the house.
