    Is that work in the sense of "I've been stuffing my face at a top London eaterie, but it was all for the sake of client relations - therefore it counts" sort of work?

    Well, it is Friday after all ......... Give the boy a break! I missed out on the Delibes having to go for an appointment. I have been patiently waiting for an electrifying E Oops! Have I had a vision as to the answer?

    That was cancelled - as far as I was concerned (the person I was standing by to fill in for suddenly found they could go...)

    It was hence real work. However I am now ensconsed in a corner desk with which you are familiar and on the basis that it's tough to libel Mr Gaddafi, I am able to devote myself to more important matters...

    Anna - chuff chuff! I have been diverted by the debate as to the word 'totty'. I am now concentrating on the E question.

    I'm truly sorry to hear you missed out. In the bottom drawer of the said desk you will find a takeaway menu for a less-rareified, but equally satisfying, culinary experience. (I recommend the chicken ceylon). Don't rush to give us an E, that would lend an uncharacteristic sense of haste to the proceedings...

    Only joking Caliban, and I did notice you had been diverted by the word "totty" I guess you mistook the speling for Tootie! Tootie! I doubt if I will be available tonight to see your puzzle though.

    OK here goes with E, it's all rather E-laborate I'm afraid (that's not a clue, just another dodgy alphabetical pun).

    What is the common factor between the following three gentlemen: No 1 wrote a Mass among other things, but also created terpsichorean inspiration from a magical combination of nuts and sand; No 2 also wrote a Mass among many other things, and you have to keep a firm grasp of the helm to find your way among his creations; and there was no stopping No 3 (who was very familiar with No 2's dad) on his way to Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

    Not even slightly, Anna, I'm afraid!
