This seems to mean that we should refer to Johan Crowf, but that's by the by. More importantly, Kowt's dad is a fisherman called Gerrit. Gerrit Kowt. Great name for a fi...

It is but there's no indictaion they were Sikhs. No indeed. No religious identification at all. There was talk that anyone leaving the house with a knife should be locked up forever, which is understandable in a way, but a bugger for some - including the main importer of Swiss Army Knives... or the...
