      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      I am not a number, I am a free man.

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

          Indeed - though all that water emptying and the Trooping of the Colour do seem to have some kind of commonality...

                Still thinking...still have no idea what you're on about. Some sort of tortuous analogy, no doubt, which makes sense to you if nobody else......

                  Were you alluding to horses pissing?

                  I can't think of any other 'water emptying' connection.
