Weird headline of the day:
"What are you doing here?": man asks wife at brothel
A Polish man got the shock of his life when he visited a brothel and spotted his wife among the establishment’s employees.
Polish tabloid Super Express said the woman had been making some extra money on the side while telling her husband she worked at a store in a nearby town.

Okay, and I’m cheating a bit, too: I started the book before Christmas and have only a hundred-or-so pages to go. You won’t tell, will you?
