In other news, HD and I are just back from a day in Targu Jiu, where we saw the outdoor sculptures by Constantin Brancusi (along with the very non-Romanian Anthony Gormley my favourite sculpture). They were fabulous, but I've not got the photos onto the memory stick yet so will pick out the best ones for next time. But, just like I felt when I stood under Angel of the North, when I was standing under Brancusi's "Endless Column" I felt like I was in the presence of greatness. Wonderful stuff.

In other other news, all of a sudden (with only a couple of weeks to go before I pack up and leave Sibiu and head on to Moldova for the next bit of the adventure) interviewees are coming out of the woodwork! Argh! I'm trying to have a smoochy relaxing time with HD and I have to keep working!
