Ah ha ! One buttock must mean Candide, that old woman who sadly lost a buttock to cannibalistic gastronomes... I hear Christa Ludwig's voice... singing in Spanish style.. à la Domingo... (and the works of Mr Gaztambide, who I confess I had to look up on wikipedia)... all perfoming...

Zarzuelaaaaaaaaaaaa....

Success Caliban, a positive success!

And well done with the lady with one buttock - but why might she be fond of a zarzuela or two???

Was she ravished and de-buttocked by Spaniards?

[Nick Armstrong]

So the gossip's true.....

[rubbernecker]

And well done with the lady with one buttock - but why might she be fond of a zarzuela or two???

Dear old Roger Hewland at Gramex is fond of a zarzuela or two, istr

"Now Mr Frampton, vis-à-vis your rump......"

Arghhh

I've just remembered that I owe the world an A

Sorry folks, that pesky hijacker, work, distracted me. I'm on it now. Back soon

[Nick Armstrong]

Right...


Which A unites the following:
1) President Sarkozy of France
2) Coutts' Bank
3) A great place to view the Red Fortress of the Nasrid Emirs?

[amateur51]

It is ur actual Albeniz

Sarkozy's second wife was Cecilia Ciganer-Albéniz

Coutts provided Albéniz with a secure income and collaborated with him on three operas with varying degrees of success.

The Red Fortress = Alhambra which is the title of one og Albeniz's piano pieces

If my answers are acceptable, I am sorry to report that I have to leave shortly & shall not be back until about 19:00. So please, if necessary, pass me by.

[Nick Armstrong]

Cooooo lummeee lawks'a'mercy, you 'ave got into the swing of it an' no mistake Mister Hamateur....

By and large, quite brilliant

Slight wobble on item 3, I said a good place to view the Alhambra - i.e. not the Alhambra itself, but the place across the valley: El Albaicin... One of the movements from Iberia.

But you get the biscuit and the cigar. Come on... just a quickie B-fore you go out... You know you want to

Go on Jules! Let it all out! Unburden yerself!!!!!
