    1. Just now, after seeing this post, I learned that Guy started signing his name as “Guido” after serving in the Spanish army.

      It’s just proof that being a fanatical extremist can also come with a grain of sand of truth

    3. *I was tortured until I could hardly sign my name*

      *And listening to you felt pretty much the same!*

      This came up on the Three Bean Salad podcast a few weeks ago (an old one but the timing is good) and I thought ‘must look that up’ and then immediately forgot so thanks!
