          Great to return home to find The Lord Norfolk firmly ensconced here!

          Alas I returned a smidge too late to pick up the Frankie Howerd clue which I might just have got

          Anna - no, I arrived just after the downpour that drenched Frankie Hollande yesterday.. Saw some Socialistic Shennanigans in the square in front of the Hôtel de Ville, that was about it.

          Home now clutching my delicious fresh baguette... MISSIS!!!!

          Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
          Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

            Anna got two of the Four Frankies, so I think she should be invited to set the next question. (The Norfolks will now settle down to a pot of tea and Episode 8 of 'The Bridge').

                Merci, mon cher amateur

                Has the lure of the puy lentil deprived us of Anna's quizzical creativity?

                  Sorry, unadvoidably detained, no lentils were involved, and I had no idea I had been awarded the G. Unfortunately have to retire now until the morning but will leave you with an easy G to ponder overnight.

                  Which G is:
                  Musical notation
                  A first at Bayreuth
                  and could be held in someone's front room?

                    Perhaps matters.... Silken?? (Did you watch Ep. 1 of the new series yet? Clerks a-go-go...? Have it recorded, I shall watch asap...)

                    Thanks for the G. No immediate thoughts... May need to let it work subconsciously overnight, as you say!

                      Grave?

                        No cloughie, and I don't think a grave in the front room would be a good idea!
                        Caliban, I did watch Silk .... I await Learned Counsel's opinion.

                          this sounds rather like the first Afro-Caribbean lady to sing there

                          or non-Caucasian, whatever the correct word is

                                Could be, and it could be that people are in a State?
