                            Come on ams, chuck back a tablespoonful of NightNurse and give us something phenomenal !
                            "...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..."

                                A brace of Ovchinnikovs?

                                Vyacheslav the film and symphony composer
                                Vladimir the pianist (he came first in the Leeds and joint second in the Moscow)

                                You could have roped in the former Lokomotiv Moscow goalie to make up the three-some - teamsaint might have rushed in for a winner
