he was just trying to keep Brunella warm but, as a zoo spokesperson pointed out, a bra and sexy suspenders does not keep anything warm).

I could go on for ages but if you're a reader of "Fortean Times" you know you'll be in for a unique book. If you're not a reader of "Fortean Times", then you should be, starting with this book.
