Ahmad Jamal is a gifted and very famous American jazz pianist. Miles Davis called him "a big inspiration". He's lined up to perform at the Festival da Jazz in St. Moritz, Switzerland, on 16th July.
is still banned from travelling to America. True story.
She's not the only one! I don't really understand the point of that question; I don't think any terrorist would tick the yes box, unless it's a really stupid terrorist (I won't rule out they exist, but...)
Argh, the IRA. The pox on their heads. We had friends from NI while living in London (back in the days when dinosaurs still roamed Trafalgar Square), and we were regularly dragged into a pub where, just before the closing bell rang, a "volountary collection for the brothers back home" was made. Very strange experience!
We also had some very bizarre run-ins with "anti-Irish" (in lack of a better word) sentiments. Miss C. looks like the clichee poster girl for Irish holidays. Red hair, freckles, everything. We were looking for a B + B, and this woman who ran the place glared at her and said that she doesn't let rooms to the Irish. WTF?! We told her that no, we're not Irish, but Swiss, and we'd rather sleep under a bridge than under the roof of an ignoramus doofus (I think the term Miss C. used was "stupid twat").
