    ... grab those birthday offers when they're there, Pet. Hope the rest of the day was considerably less frustrating!

        Yes the Elgar Symphony No. 1 on the Profil box set is quite hard driven at times and it wouldn't be my first choice. But I believe it's certainly worth hearing and for me has that certain special quality of a live performance.
