      I actually have an amusing G for the company, should you be willing to allow me, o fellow-solver...

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

              Cy Feuer together with Ernest Martin () "conceived Guys and Dolls as an adaptation of Damon Runyon's short stories".
              That reminds me, I was planning to get some Runyon stories - thanks

                  Ladies? OMG, ladies? Did you hear that hedgehog, he refers to us as his Ladies?
                  Fat chance.

                      I nearly said "girls" but I didn't want any trouble...

                        I suspect that just 'Ladies' is pretty long odds

                            By crème anglaise do you mean custard?

                              Very wise M'Lud. Care to dig any deeper holes in the art of patronising?
