Bohemia, 1866

They met in a port-side tavern, their lust-filled moments stolen from days of marching and madness. After eighteen months, Captain Rudolph von Ratzlaff and First Lieutenant Mathias Hofmann have decided to run away from everything they hold dear. Resigning their commissions is social suicide, but there's no other choice. Someone will eventually see Rudolph's partiality toward Mathias.

Now their plans have gone horribly awry... When Mathias goes to Rudolph's tent after their last battle, his lover looks at him without a hint of recognition. Mathias can hardly believe the man he knew is gone. He wants to fill in so many of Rudolph's missing memories, but the doctor says a shock could result in permanent damage. The pain of seeing Rudolph on a daily basis, when Rudolph doesn't remember their love, is excruciating. Now Mathias must decide whether he wants to fight for the man he loves or forget him completely...

Best not to wear…

I was in a pub/restaurant at lunchtime

This one, if you are interested. It does good English fare.

and there was a nice looking bloke ahead of me at the bar. With baggy, but not overbaggy, cut off to the knee levis. (it would have served his arse better to have them pulled up, but then I'm an old fogey)

But really, if you ARE going to adopt this fashion style then at least wear Pierre Cardin knickers or something impressive.

Not super tight y-fronts with a more cartoony version of this

probably bought by mummy a good few Christmases ago.
