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

          Oh yes, TS! Actually, in trying to be economical I booked a seat for the return journey. However, at 03.30 at Preston we were told there was a power failure in the carriage so were transferred into bunks. I did have a fleeting thought as to what Sir Simon was doing at this time. I'll bet it didn't involve walking up a freezing cold platform!

          All part of the experience!

            "Prisoners Cell Block H (NB that's B in German Notational Nomenclature)".... Yes, we could pitch a sort of nerdy classical music version of Porridge ! I see ff as ideally suited to the rôle of leather-booted, whip-cracking Prison Governor

            And Pabmusic can be Special Advisor to the series!

                Yes compared with Cyril "I read a book once" Heslop, for example...

                          It would be a crime NOT to get this at that price...!

                          And the Collins... to add to the live Rattle cycle which I've just slotted onto the iPod... to add to the recent Storgards cycle. In addition to the Vanska.

                          Do I need all these? (It's a rhetorical question, Beef Steak! )
                          Fine, but have you got, or at least ordered, the Berlin SO/Sanderling yet?

                                Probably not, until the Berglund AND the Sanderling have been savoured long...
                                AND that Ormandy Lemminkainen Legends ​is a seminal classic too, so...
