Lord Wellington was a very active guy -g-

I've finished reading "Wellington, a personal history" by Christopher Hibbert. ISBN 0-586-09109-2.

My wife is reading it now. It's a good read.

Wellington had several affairs just with Napoleons former mistresses to name a few. Josephine Weimer rated Wellington favorably as de beaucoup le plus fort (1)

(1) quoted in Elizabeth Longford "Wellington: The years of the sword"

A good title for a movie on that subject LOL
