... if I may ...

In the original magnificent painting there was a voice balloon above his right hand that read, " Lord Wellington, you brilliant bastard. Welcome to my hasty retreat into oblivion and depression."

A decade later, the forefathers to modern day graffiti artists broke into the museum and painted the hat onto it. By that time the world felt sorry for the old goat and left the hat in place.

Ce la vie!

Aaghh...... the spanish......inspiring?

More that they conjure in the mind a bunch of circus clowns riding around in a car; too small for their large bodies and heads, too loud for all and too smelly still!
