      O Jesus, yes! I hate it when that happens!

      I'm absolutely zonked actually ... Got rain-dampened, cycling home, and there's a chill wind... So I jumped under a hot shower... The effect has been to put me into a slight coma, I think
      "...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..."

        There is really no answer to that, is there?
        Now, pay attention, Flay has got The Great North Road and Delius North Country Sketches, so what is 148? I'm sure it's not a transactinide element, but. could it be part of a map reference?

          Happy Birthday for last Thursday, Anna!

          Should anyone else think of it, Longitude 148 gives us New South Wales and Papua New Guinea, but nuffin "North".

          So: no idea!

            Thank you ferney, for birthday greetings. I think I'll probably turn off now but, did you know, North Walsham is Sheet No. 148 on Ordnance Survey, but with an E suffix. So, No Idea!!

              Back to the N. If it is North (Hatfield and the proverbial), then we have Delius: North Country Sketches.

              But 148 has got me completely foxed...
              All correct - back to church or Sunday school think of a hymn! What was the hymn tune called?

                        What are you on Flay - think North and hymns with it in the title and the lyrics - get up there.

                            Darwall's it is, 148, you're more than snookered!

                            The Onus is on you!

                              great hymn. I was nowhere near, never heard of that tune's name...

                              So what were the others? The Delius and...? Anna mentioned The Great North Road but what has that to do with Canterbury?

                                Do keep up please, Calibs. In amongst all the wild heckling, yours truly diagnosed:

                                Hatfield and the North (a Canterbury Rock group), and Delius: North Country Sketches.
