I think I'm stretching things

There are clubs up the West End where that sort of thing is catered for, Flay

Oh yes?

A mass

Maybe it is Latin, love?

[Flay]

Or perhaps "a mass" refers to John Newton who wrote the words to the hymn Amazing Grace?

Or James Newton Howard, an American composer? Or the composer and pianist David Newton?

This could run all night.

The mass you need to be thinking early!

Yes

Yes

Well anyone want to finish this or is it a dubya avoidance tactic.

[Nick Armstrong]

Well anyone want to finish this or is it a dubya avoidance tactic.

No it was due to dense ignorance on my part.

I guess it must be

Victoria de LA
Ray Davies's "Victoria"
Tomas Luis de Victoria who wrote a Mass or two...

Have I goal poached, everyone else having done the hard work?

[Flay]

...

Have I gaol poached, everyone else having done the hard work?

No. It doesn't matter who bakes the bun, or who ices it. It's the cherry on top that counts.

Would you like to wow us with your wonderful W?

Not sure I agree, especially as I'm not keen on the sort of glacé cherries one tends to find on buns.

But here's a late one...

Bear hunting after an afternoon snooze?

No Cali you've just Anna'd it nicely.

Bear hunting after an afternoon snooze?

Can't resist a burst from Herr Issyvoo ...


The common cormorant or shag
Lays eggs inside a paper bag
The reason you will see no doubt
It is to keep the lightning out
But what these unobservant birds
Have never noticed is that herds
Of wandering bears may come with buns
And steal the bags to hold the crumbs.

[Flay]

Very good, ams.

My thoughts were of another bear, and brief research found me a critique that exemplifies all that is good and bad about Google:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paddington_Bear's_Gold_Record

"It is currently unknown what the talent that made this recording accomplished elsewhere in the world."

I wonder if a faun is having this aftenoon snooze

[Nick Armstrong]

See what you mean, Flay!

But the answer involves neither Paddington nor a Faun.
