      OK then with cloughers in full Wembley training a feeble P hardly worth a penny .....

        Are we talking about a pale yellow spring flower here, ag?

        Bartok's unfinished viola concerto was commissioned by William Primrose.
        Stephen Sondheim wrote the music for Evening Primrose.
        Less conviced by the third part, but there is a Primrose and West song and dance team, the first of whom, George, was apparently born in London, Ontario.

            So are we still looking for another (American, not Canadian) George Primrose?

                Aha! So it IS George Gershwin, not in Paris, but writing his musical Primrose, specifically for London, with Guy Bolton being one of the book writers.
                Now I get it!



                Lots of property for sale in Primrose Street, Bolton, it would appear!

                    A double first for Michael, and 24/24 for Niccolò, but Ludwig decided he needed to work for an undeclared income instead.

                    What qualification did they all get?

                      Would it be worth asking what your motives are for one of the clues, Pulcers?
                      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.

                        Always worth asking, ts, but not so obscurely that I don't get what you're on about (which might suggest that the answer is 'No'!).


                        Just off to do a daytime shift of volunteer work: no undeclared income from this sort of job.

                          Phew. in this case you are right, the answer must be no.
                          you better get shifting !!

                            Not ringing any bells?
                            Nobody got a hunch?

                              Is it a real question, or does it just look like one?

                                They (post #1318) were supposed to be hints.
