Travel for Pleasure
ADIO by proxy is scarcely @mough justification for writing a comment on something heard during 3ZB’s Women’s Hour, although such is the fascination of Bryan O’Brien’s travel talks that at least twice now these have teen recounted to me in detail; his trip to the monasteries of Mount Athos and his adventures in East Berrf
lin. I did, however, hear the last of his Series advising people how to make the most of their travel. I thought this pretty sound. Things must not be done out of a sense of duty, and the little story of the man who could have "done" the Louvre in 10 minutes if he’d had sandshoes reminded me of those friends who said I wasn’t interested in art because I did not rush to see everything of note in Italy. The other thing was; not to be too set in one’s plans to miss turning into a bypath-as when, quite by chance, Mr. O’Brien witnessed ancient Norse rites in a Scandinavian fjord. But will someone please lead me to where I can buy a _ thousand-mile, trouble-free taxi for £7/10/-. I might even run up to a tenner for it,
