(Disclaimer: In no way do I condone art thefts, or indeed real life thievery of any kind...)
...but it seems that Eroica & co have been keeping busy:
• "The theft of the century" in Switzerland - men with ski masks, bold as brass plain day theft. No one was hurt. Experts say that the paintings are too well-known to be sold. Aren't they hanging in some North Downs castle, I wonder...? "The boy in the red waistcoat" sounds like something Dorian would fancy... ;)
(I side with direaliete, however, who alerted me to this theft, that it can't be related to the Picasso one. We don't see Dorian going for Picasso.)
• Jewelry stolen in Italy - "Before Sunday's real-life Italian Job, they had dug for several weeks from a building under construction next door. [...] The seven men, unarmed and unmasked" [...] "The thieves tied the staff up with plastic cable and sticky tape." (Sounds like James' cheapness, right?) [...] "Police say it was an extremely professional job" - thanks to Dorian's graceful style, no doubt.
How's Klaus doing these days, though?
• Preparing for the NATO Summit, maybe. (If my compatriots are as prepared as they've got me used to, Klaus is going to have a lot of shouting to do...)
(I [still] know the difference between reality and fiction, so I will not lurk around the building trying to catch a glimpse of the German delegation. ;)Though tempted I am... But it's funny, because last year I wouldn't have cared about this summit except for the fact that the airport's going to be closed for three days, causing even more chaos than usual, and now I find it fascinating.)
