I've read George Orwell's bio on Wiki: no mention of 'Marina Orwell' as his daughter, only an adopted son. ?????? Or is that an inside joke of some variety??
People get away with naming themselves any old thing. Some honor and flatter themselves extremely. In one forum people were ordered not to write under the name of some hero of olde. (Stormfront?)
We heard the Horst Wessel and other German Army songs, sung by some olde soldiers (who had partaken generously of the mead), while dining in an olde farmhouse/restaurant in France.
The fellas were having themselves a large time of it.
