As a loyal bleeder of my blog, you may have noticed my recent bloat (written as my capacity as a blighter) on the subject of "places like" etc.
In transcribing my grandmother's diary the other day I came across this bloat, or "entry "as she would have said:
"People like Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt travelled to places like Yalta to discuss the shape of places like the world after things like the hostilities were over. In the meantime, Roosevelt mulled the possibility of dropping bombs on places like Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
I wonder if the writer has any informeration about Denis Capel-Dunn, wartiem secretary of the British Joint Intelligence Committee, killed in June 1945?
