      "...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've realised since setting it that I could have made the first part much better Anyway... )

                        So far so good

                        The improvement which I should have thought of before posting, was that Holst's 'St Paul's' wasn't in fact the Cathedral but the school he taught at - so I could have referred to both him and RVW visiting schools... Oh well.

                        Please carry on mercs... with as much wiggling as you like

                              Not quite a three-piece suite. Might want to reconsider the one in red above?
