Thank you indeed Jaime. You have inspired me a lot for this project, and 
still do.

LOL! There is indeed a flavour of Sinbad in Gancaloon. 1001 Nights are 
never far from my mind, as are also the tales by Wilhelm Hauff which 
enchanted my youth, and likewise the adventures of Kara Ben Nemsi by 
Karl May.

Curiously, there was also another Sinbad film the other day, from the 
forties with Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. I don't remember the channel though.
