      The library shelves are full of Bartok PC2; please can we have some more space?

        It seems there's been a rush on them; only one copy left now.

          Funnily enough, the UoY library catalogue claimed that they had two copies, but we could only find one (which is the one I borrowed); their shelving system is completely hopeless (and incomprehensible even to the helper who tried to find them for me!). For example, because they use the first three letters of the composer surname, books/scores by Strauss and Stravinsky are completely jumbled up (but sorted according to the author of the book). Madness!

            If you're ever in Manchester I recommend the Henry Watson Music Library for a confusing time!

              The inn in Bethlehem is already full (Christmas Music), it would seem.

                It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

                    It's come round again a bit early this year.

                      Looks like we've stopped grumbling, which in this forum is nigh impossible.
