        I got 10 but I suspect three were lucky guesses.

          Ditto. More luck than judgment, or real memory
          I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!

              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.

                "...the isle is full of noises,
                Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                      I don't know.... I think the conga round the RAH is pretty wonderful!!

                          On a pedantic note, I got 4 (and another 8).

                            I managed 11 out of 15, but that was partly luck: I was there for the Prom when Rattle had to restart the 'Rite' because some fool in the stalls forgot to turn off her mobile phone.

                              14/15. Not bad for an American who's only been over there 3 summers .
