    Possibly not. I'm travelling at the moment but will have a think when Mrs Flay takes over the driving.

    I must say the Gloucester motorway services are an improvement on most. Not a McDonald's in sight!

                The other two not so compositionally productive, but there is another connection.

                    Guess again, my friend (though those two were indeed my original thoughts!). Or George, with his mystical songs.

                    What are the Howells pieces?

                        In addition to the type of composition involved, Herbert two has a place association with Herbert one, and indeed with Flay, and he made a famous sonata recording there, apparently in one take; a touch of googling should lead you to discover Herbert three.

                            So who's the middle Herbert (again, googling with the addition of the place and the piece he recorded there will tell you), and what is all the music?

                                We await the full details, and what will probably be a more inspirational next instalment.
