                Oh, I haven't been playing, I was just adding to the sum of the others' knowledge, a sort of Anna's Law in reverse! I expect someone will be along shortly with the answer if mercia decides not to ...... You've been busy on the MB today Cali - slow day at the office??

                  It's been very quiet, I was just saying to someone here that all the people I've called or emailed this morning have not responded at all... I think there's been a huge rush to the beach or at least the garden by swathes of the population, to take advantage of what we shall no doubt look back on in June, July and August as "summer"...

                    Perhaps it's something you said? Nevermind, you can always to to Wembley! ............ I really don't want to post an answer because I'm off shortly (got me bucket and spade ready) and don't wish to set the next. Edit: What's happened to Flay? Last seen in a distillery in Oban ... at least his name's not Clarence!

                      OK the answer is Aix-en-Provence, birthplace of Helene Grimaud, Andre Campra and Darius Milhaud

                      I set the U question, the V question and the Z question, so I think it may be somone else's turn

                        Ferney's around, he's just decapitated me on the Jooblee thread

                        Seems a long time since he made it out under the wire to set one...

                          And he did share the spoils with you on W.

                          Got to say never heard of Campra but then that era is not on my radar, too much rattly keyboards and that sort of stuff!

                            Seems fair, or Don Petter was just lately so near yet so far? He hasn't set one for absolutely ages. See what happens in a hour or so, no rush is there. Enjoy the sunshine ...... soak up the rays

                              Campra's Requiem is a bit special http://www.amazon.co.uk/Requiem-Mess...7796213&sr=1-1

                                My partner's not been well, so I've been looking after her for the past couple of weeks (translation: getting in the way of Nurses whilst they look after her - and an excellent job they did, too!) She's back home now, so if a B is still required, try this:

                                Follow the pipes and drums out of doors on this beautiful night into the woods: it's agony! What the B am I on about?
