    Puck and Pickwick appear in Debussy's Préludes, a major interpreter of which is Walter Gieseking (Gissa King!!)

    Apologies to all; warm welcome to Angle; and a aitch from Hammie! Unless we celebrate Ang's one minute difference with an obtuse offering?

        Tempting him to go off at a tangent!

          A short course of reflexology will sort that out (as long as the temperature doesn't fall below 180 degrees, of course)!

            Are we sure Angle will be back here some time soon?

            I wonder if Ammy shouldn't produce something Hammy as is his right, nay duty
            "...the isle is full of noises,
            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

              I'm sure Angle will be back with a suitably oblique question Nice to see him back, I missed all the fun yesterday evening, too busy watching Corrie! (Don't worry, no spoilers)

                  Thanks! I managed to catch up with last week's following departure of weekend visitors... I do love Norris's presence like a Greek chorus with brush ("That pavement'll be gleaming by t'time you've finished") observing and commenting on all the baleful goings on...

                  Wonder what Ammy's up to all day

                  Here: to work

                    Thought you didn't like oblique?

                      Hopefully Ammy will be off having a thoroughly enjoyable time and a slap-up lunch at Mrs. Miggins' Pie Shop whilst others are obliged to be chained to their desks ...... with possibly a roast pork bap?

                      Ah, you have not experienced one of Angle's puzzles ...... Actually he usually keeps late hours so may not appear for a while, assuming he does check that the honour is his

                            a heroic answer

                              I think that's an heroic intervention, mercs, since you are not generally forward about coming forward with a question!

                              Definitely Straussian vibes to the last element at least... no?

                              EDIT: Oh... I seem to have been unheroic Johnny-come-lately on this - that'll teach me to take a phone call in mid-answer
