        Lucky Anna's not here, she'd have your guts for garters, pulling a trick like that! She has mine, when I try a wacky one!!

        Hoping for more time over the next day or so for AA fun, so bring it on vinmousseux!

              On a Saturday afternoon? Poor blighters!

              Seriously, sorry that you've had to have 'dealings' - hope it was in circumstances not too adverse...

                  ... not quite Saturday afternoon - but recent days and weeks... All to do with various trusts relating to Mme V. All will be well, but it's all so goddam protracted

                              How might (i) a trip from, for example, Porte Dauphine to Nation; (ii) a four-time Président; and (iii) the Seine, Garonne and Dordogne (for example) lead you to 'Q', where musicians may well speak the same language?

                                This is a puzzle the most tantalising, 'Astings.

                                The station de métro Franklin D. Roosevelt is not on the Porte Dauphine-Nation line, and yet FDR is the only President I know that served four times in office. I've come to a slight halt.
