    Sadly yes, although a very nice line of yours there, I must say.

    Just google "Royal family arms sales," and see what comes up.

    Adding the words Saudi, Arabia, Bahrain, and ( I think) Indonesia are also helpful.
    I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      Oh that head of the C of E. I thought you meant Justin Welby. Can't say I'm surprised......but I did find this:

      Analysis: The heir to the UK throne - who enjoys very close relations with Gulf monarchies, in particular Saudi Arabia - no longer wants to help sell weapons, according to a new biography.

          Returning to Winchester's CE, it may interest those LA-ing or tuning in on Sunday afternoon that the service was sung in the nave. I don't think anyone's mentioned the St Anne Fugue. A fitting piece, played in the best 'cathedral Bach' tradition.

            Interesting to compare and contrast the VW with Bairstow's setting of the same text, broadcast four weeks earlier.
