    By the left, Caliban - did the coffee trolley have a pokey blend on this morning?

    Later: will he go for the Q or the O?

    Thanks, chaps... I think I looked into pagodas recently, there may even have been a question about them (or which I thought was about them).

    I do have a modest O... ahem... if no one minds...

    This O links a visit to a cathedral (it might seem) by Holst, to a public school by Vaughan Williams, and a joke by Tchaikovsky.

    Was too quick for ya, Cloughie

    Actually I'm ok with jumping one and going back - keeps things flowing, in case of difficulty... and O is tricky. We could call it the Mercia Skip.
