I am really rather glad that I slept through most of A. Devious indeed. Well done, Vinteuil.

Now, guys, I shall not be around much for the next five or six days. Liverpool will have to do without me; I am trollin' off to London on Saturday evening to see what's up and don't get back to my latti until Tuesday. Fingers crossed for reasonable weather, please.

Free wi-fi permitting, I shall watch what is going on here.

Best wishes all. Have a bona time.

Don

Have a triffic time, Angle

Good Lord, no, neither one... John Lewis, my dear. It's this dinky number: http://www.johnlewis.com/153867/Style.aspx

You went for the Mitch. We have had a pair of Dexters chez Rubbers for some time now.

Anyone for a couple of Jesses...?

Me too mercia. But it was vinteuil who first said "bird" wasn't it?

[mercia]

for sure

[Anna]

If mercia really doesn't want it and vinteuil doesn't step forward I'll cobble together a C if you give me half an hour?

I'm sure your C will be crafted, rather than cobbled, and I, for one, look forward to it hugely

No, make that cobbled!! Been interrupted by phone calls, sorry this isn't terribly good and probably too easy.

I gave my love a Cherry -

I have Cherry Ripe for No.3 (the Millais painting - also a tone poem by Frank Bridge, istr) and Don Cherry who recorded with Ornette Coleman for No.4...

I'm sure Cherry Orchard should be in there somewhere, but it doesn't really fit No.1?

I turn my back for a mo and rubbers has had my cherry! Yes, No. 3 is Cherry Ripe and No. 4 Don Cherry. No. 1, as I said, is a famous story about a real-life person. There is no Cherry Orchard involved and the best seller was in the 50s.

Yes, it was George and the cherry tree. English trumpeter and strangely enough his first hit has a sort of link to the tale of George. Although we are not searching for the name but the piece of music
