                    Sorry Flay - so much coleslaw so little thyme ....


                    The Thomases - although they seemed to grow with 2016 - Arne, Linley ( the Younger ) and Ades plus Matthew Locke, Arfur Sullivan and Jean Sibelius - who belongs to 2015 surely .....

                          I guess she's made llareggub contribution of late.
                          The answer has something to do with a Welsh guy who tied the knot in Penzance in 1936.

                            Indeed Flay and cloughers but does it have to be someone from/in the Principality who says the word ... ???

                              Well cloughie indicated it, but I shall vocalise it:

                              Under Milk Wood

                              The album The Kinks are the Village Green Preservation Society (1968) by The Kinks was inspired partly by Under Milk Wood, according to its creator, songwriter Ray Davies.

                              Jazz Suite Inspired by Dylan Thomas' "Under Milk Wood" is an album by the English pianist Stan Tracey and his quartet (1965)

                              Under Milk Wood: An Opera, setting a shortened version of the text of the play, composed by John Metcalf and premiered at Taliesin Arts Centre, Swansea in 2014.

                              I'm currently in the wilds south of Oban but will try to conjure up a V Very soon (or by the weekend!)
