    What about the dramatic serenade?

    If that's how you serenaded Mrs Oven, it's perhaps no wonder the good woman works abroad....?

    The choral work is 'O Fortuna' from Carmina Burana

    For the cruise, I can only think of 'Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage' can't find a Fortuna...
    absolutely correct, fortunately! The other Mozart character alluded to was Constanza.

    Yes, Costa Fortuna - a sister ship of the sunken cruise ship Costa Concordia It was all I could think of at that late hour...

    Gosh, are we onto a G already? Go for it, Calibs!

    A G to link Rotterdam, Ravi Shankar and a compound of sodium carbonate, lime and silicon dioxide

    I am leaving for lunch with a client around 12:30... In fact the location of my lunch inspired this question ... indeed, it's the answer!
