Someone I work with has a sister who lives in London. Her husband (the sister in London) used to live in Los Angeles, America with his mother, now sadly deceased. Before she died she was a keen skier and her instructor was from Bern, Switzerland. He (the instructor) went to school with a lad whose mother knew Ingrid Bergman’s hairdresser.
