                  No but both Novaks - surely AA rules allow anything!
                  Kim was a stunning moll way back then Yes?

                      ... ah, the former days of AA - distant memories! Do you recall that we even had an Official Archivist - was it rubbernecker? - who recorded all the clue Words used in all of the alphabetical cycles - amazing!

                      Happy days...

                        That looks like taking obsessiveness seriously.

                          You'd have to meet rubbers to understand...!



                          "...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..."

                              It is a Furtive and a Festive Flay...

                              Délibes wrote an opéra-bouffe in 1859 called L'Omelette à la Follembuche... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-LtC9Ydh6Y Sounds bloody awful but is it any good here?

                              The only connected M can I see is the co-librettist, the soi-disant Marc-Michel

                              Wrote some cracking other stuff too....

                              ... one for Anna: Le Baromètre, ou la Pluie et le Beau Temps (1848)

                              ... the thrilling La Femme qui perd ses jarretières (1851)

                              ... and perhaps Flay's alter ego featuring in Un voyage autour de ma femme (1854)

                              Sorry to ramble
