    Still can't work out what that could have to do with M. Jarre, though

    Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
    Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
    Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

          An E to connect Coronation Street with Savoy and a rake.

          Maybe this will tempt our friend from Norfolk back... some while since he has been seen on this manor, if I'm not mistaken!

                              I can't play any more just now. We're off to Jersey for the weekend (the Flay family has a terrible carbon footprint just now!) and Mrs Flay is champing... animals to the kennels, finish packing etc etc...

                              Must remember to pack the umbrella and kaggy
