Sir John Kotelawala was once the Prime Minister of Ceylon. He had a brusque manner but had many endearing ways.
It was common knowledge that he was a Ladies man. He was accompanied most of the time by a coterie of females. The press labelled the members of this group 'The Purple Brigade.
Once when Sir John visited Paris. One of the journalists commented that Sir John spoke good French. He followed up by asking Sir John where he learnt his French. Pat came the reply from Sir John 'Under the blanket'.
