| I won
this tie in a card game in Vietnam. I was in the Mekong Delta on
holiday, and got involved in a card game with a local man while
waiting for a ferry.
The game became quite intense and reached a climax when the Vietnamese
guy raised the stakes to $20 in a single hand; this is more
than many Vietnamese people earn in a week.
He lost but could not pay up.
I wanted him to forget about it but he insisted on honouring the
debt by giving me the tie instead.
