        Oh, I wish you hadn't posted that, Am51: I have Perlemuter's Nimbus recording, and don't think I'll be able to listen to it properly ever again !! But no hard feelings: thanks for a brilliant caption !

          It's all gone very quiet!

          Logging off in about ten minutes if anyone wants to suggest a solution before then.

          Otherwise we'll have to see if the Night Shift can finnish things off.

                Have pondered this but getting nowhere. My brain goes into "don't know any cabaret acts" mode when you mention a "cabaret act E"... no doubt it's cryptic though, and no doubt your misspelling of 'finnish" is a clue. But I have to pass - got to work
