    Lurking, lurking…

    Are we awaiting an N from the Tapster?

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

      We are indeed, Nick - I hope the time-lapse will not increase the cryptic factor.

        It's certainly All Quiet On The AA Front at the moment - are we heading for a 1914-style Christmas Truce?

          I’m sure Tapiola would have been able to come up with an N in 3 days, so I’m guessing seasonal distractions may have intervened… I hope he won’t mind if I progress things with aN humble offering?

          How were James, Arnold and Toru behind the times?

            I was just wondering whether we might have been asked this last month.

                It looks as though I was wrong to follow Takemitsu's Steps into Bax's Woods.

                  By George, I thought you'd got it on Toru and Arnold. James was elusive though.
                  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 reference to 'last month' in my earlier post was my (probably over-subtle) way of asking 'Is the answer November?' I, too, have found a musical James November.
