      Who among us hasn't done that from time to time?
      I'm inclined to award the 'N' to cloughie if that's OK with you.

          Cloughie appears to be currently online, so we may hope for an 'N' shortly...Let's hope you get to solve the next 'M'! (I've had a 'C' on the stocks for absolutely AGES )

            Go ahead with your N Flay - You did all the work - I just goalpoached. You've got one ready and I'm off out shortly.

              Well I hope I'm not mistaken doing this first. Please give me an N: a hat for Caliban's pleasure.

                  Do I assume we are to look in The Tempest? Caliban does say "Thou makest me merry; I am full of pleasure" which just about sums Ower Cali up!! And he does wear a pork pie hat! Are the usual three elements involved? I.E., a hat, Caliban, pleasure

                    Yes, three items with a common composer.

                    What else did Caliban say?

                        I've come by too late to tackle this signature question!

                        Did you folks know that Anna and I had posed for the cover of a book in our younger days?

                        ...




                        "...the isle is full of noises,
                        Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                        Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                        Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                          Nyman it is and the hat is correct. But the other two are not on the card.

                            Oh, Caliban, when Flay asked "what else did Caliban say" All I could think of was - Toot Toot!!

                              ... good lord, Cali, that brings back memories! When I was about ten/twelve my eldest brother (then fifteen/sixteen) acquired a copy of this - it became gospel for him and the other brother - their entire take on natty suitings appropriate for furtive attendance at discothèques in Bath was ruled by that book!

                                There's still time to get your quote in, Calibs.

                                p.s. Nice legs, Anna
