    Vinteuil, I am a but puzzled by the wording of the first element

    "Which E supported a Welsh Prime Minister here,"

    Are we looking for the supporter or the place ?

      Except of course David Lloyd Jones is indeed part of the clue.
      The pasta clue, that's the Macaroni thingy, innit, that L-G tried to introduce?

      Off to the kitchen now, all will be solved on my return

        E is a person.

          Anna: the Marconi Scandal surely.

          Vinteuil : did Anna name David Lloyd JONES? I thought that only you did.

          Angle is retiring for food. Good lucx, Anna

            The Marconi Scandal? No, surely Macaroni, as in cheesy? Anna too will refer herself in the third person and is retiring for food. Of course, there is the great Penne scandal involving Mussolini ,,,,,,

            David Lloyd Jones? Who He?

              EDIT mea maxima culpa - I mean (of course, of course) David Lloyd George

                  Never mind vint, three Hail Marys and a couple of Novenas and we'll forgive you! You could sacrifice a goat in passing, look you!

                      Isn't the macaroni scandal a spoof?

                      The Marconi Scandal was serious at the time:

                      But are we getting anywhere?

                        Macaroni is not the pasta involved here. And it has no connection with Lloyd George...

                          Are we getting anywhere? No, probably not. I have a birthday pressie of Belgian chocs which I think I will open. That sounds good to me, a couple of soft truffles and a creme cacao not to mention a lemon meringue fantasy, and then, what do I care? I am in Heaven. Edit: And travelling since before 8am this morn, off to bed and leave you all to the solving.

                            Was he an editor of Boris Godunov or something? Reinstated the orignal version? The name rings a bell. The Lamm version. The Lloyd Jones version. Jerzy Semkow. That Martti...

                            I digress as I am utterly clueless about the E.

                              Indeed Taps, Lloyd-Jones founded and became the first Music Director of Opera North in 1978, but a Prime Minister - I think not! You and I are totally clueless I think.

                                E is a composer. Still - I think - with us.
