                In the live version of The Wall, Is There Anybody Out There: The Wall Live 1980-1981"We'll Meet Again" (Vera Lynn) opens the concert before the show starts. It serves as a link between band member Roger Waters and his father, who was killed during World War II.

                So speaks a Pink Floyd Anorak!!

                  You got there in the end, Angle - Vera Lynn.

                  Responsible for that wartime cry of despair at the dinner table: 'Whale meat AGAIN???'

                  I think that Angle has earned the honour of giving us a WubbleEwe - bravo!

                        Phew that was exciting

                        On this occasion, I wonder if Vinteuil would set it.

                        Not only am I just about to go out, I think that setting one puzzle a day is enough for me.

                        Thanks anyway.

                        If not Vintueil, whoever comes here next perhaps.

                        Best wishes to all

                              Well, Angle's out on the razz in Liverpool, Caliban is trolling around in his Interior Decorator Mode and his new lamp, I shall be unavailable to gentlemen callers, so, shall vinteuil or Ofca set the W or shall we all snuggle up with a nice cup of cocoa on the sofa? I think it was rubbers 100 mile bike ride yesterday, I do hope he hasn't got Lycra fatigue?
