    Did you know that, for obvious reasons, an alternative name for the Bergenia is 'Elephant's Ears'?

    ... the other name for Bergenia is "pigsqueak", which is rather nice :

    Or, for lovers of the beautiful game & rather more subtle:

    Paolo di Canio,
    Paolo di Canio,
    Paolo di Canio, f**k off to Lazio

    The Beautiful Game

    Such a misnomer - as is elegantly demonstrated by #1563!

    Quite a, IMHO, decent Breakfast served up by PT this morning, Howells, Finzi, Berlin Phil (Your Call) Charles Tietjens, Barbara Pym, To Serve Them All My Days and of course Rhapsody in Your Favourite Colour.

    Iput Breakfast on briefly, but SMP then asked me to put a message in a bottle for people to read in the future. I think 60 years hence was mentioned.
    It was very early, perhaps I dreamed it, if not it is slightly worrying . And was I supposed to post it down the loo, not being near the sea. :err:

    I think your message and 2 others, one of which will obviously be French Frank's, are to be made into a song by a member of Blur and then something else weird happens.
    Glad I could clear that up for you........

    Looking at the Breakfast playlist for this morning, it looked a typically ghastly selection. Including yet another Hungarian Dance, another Schubert Impromptu, the Barber of Seville overture again, the March from the Karelia Suite yet again, yet another Grimes sea interlude, the Shostakovich Festival Overture yet again, and yet another offering from Piazzolla (which R3 seems to think is 'trendy'). I see the programme started with Mozart's A Musical Joke, which was rather apt and perhaps should begin every R3 breakfast programme these days!

    But just the odd quip not the full yarn! Was it the 'Horse of the Year Show' bit?
