Tales of the Rich, Famous and Cryptozoological

Who is Christopher Foyle? What do the rich and famous do with their money? Why don’t they donate it to the International Cryptozoology Museum via PayPal at lcoleman@maine.rr.com ?

Ah, the questions one has while waiting in an airport for an economy class seat…ha ha.

Richard Kay, recently writing for The Daily Mail, noted:

The mystery of why Christopher Foyle, the nephew of the late and eccentric bookshop owner Christina, decided to quit Britain for sunnier climes is at last explained – he is off to live in tax exile in Monaco.

“I’m looking forward to bumping into Sir Philip Green, Dame Shirley Bassey and many others!” says Foyle, 65, who had to buy back his aunt’s famous shop because she left most of her £60 million estate to charity.

Foyle, who left for Monte Carlo this week, intends to spend up to nine months a year there and also travel with his wife, Catherine, to other exotic destinations.

But far from retiring, he tells me: “I have a number of projects to pursue on a range of subjects including aviation, history and cryptozoology.” Cripes!

And let Cryptomundians know about your cryptozoology projects.

Loren Coleman About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
