As reported in my last post, I am currently reading Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, and this morning I find that archaeologists have discovered evidence of Alexander Selkirk, the marooned sailor who originally inspired the story - here.
Must be Halloween.
There is also an interesting article on Defoe here
(PS I love the naff illustration for the cover of this edition.)

I used to love the black and white series that was on every holiday. The theme tune still haunts me in fact I think Chris Evans plays it sometimes...
He looks a bit wrapped up for a desert island ...
