"They take me to Hungary with the cork-leg and tell me:
-Sorry but can't you sit there and beg? That's why we brought you here and so on, and so on. And we share fifty-fifty.
-Of course, no problem. I sit down, but how do I have to beg, please?
-How do you beg? Well, nicely, of course. -That's that. It was no problem. I went and I begged. The Gypsies from Ploiesti say - the ones that gave me passport, a fake one."
