Originally posted by vinteuil View PostThis is a case where, I think, an Oxford Comma would actually have helped.
Rather than "Kinderlieder,

... if you put "Kinderlieder,, and a jolly good Falla"
it becomes clear that is a discrete item, the second clue...
Just a thought.
sorry

Yes, spurned as ever for my humble attempts to contribute whilst threatened by the bared teeth of the old dog, work.
Ho hum! But I am happy to be the instrument of so many moments of satisfaction in the life of our dear vinrouge!

May I presume to set an O?
No doubt, judging by recent form, by the time I've finished typing, vindetable will have posted #24710 being an elegant O question.
Just in case I get in first, here's one: an O linking a musical motorbiker, an Everton FC hero, and a young man from the Kalevala
PS: wow! I made it!

Osmo Räihälä composed a piece called Barlinnie Nine dedicated to DF. Presumbly Osmo Vänska is also involved in some way?Comment

There's a 'young man' called Osmo in the Kalevala; Osmo V seems to enjoy motorcycling; DF was at Everton when Osmo R wrote his piece.Comment

Northender you beauty. Well done. A bit obscure all that, but I thought someone would get it
Yes - Osmo
Biker Osmo Vanska
Osmo Räihälä, composer, an Everton fan who wrote "Barlinnie Nine" dedicated to Ferguson (who apparently did time in Barlinnie jail - seems a rather backhanded title
)
The 'young man' of the Kalevala.
Well done Northo - tho it sounds as if mercia's inklings were making themselves felt

Osmo, Osman what's in a name! Why on earth would anyone want to write a piece for DF? Did he not top the Red Cards for the Toffees?Originally posted by Caliban View PostNorthender you beauty. Well done. A bit obscure all that, but I thought someone would get it
