      Tremendous stuff. And not a question in sight, or have I missed something....?

          A rather crucial comma, I think you'll agree.

          Perhaps I should be relieved that you have not had time to regale us with tales from Amsterdam ?

              He's too busy, really. You'll have to tell us your tales from down under, instead, Anna, which sound most intriguing.

                Well, I could, but I fear injunctions have been slapped on them!

                I am off, with a good book now.

                  Sorry for going off like that yesterday. It's never happened before.



                  My equipment was down all night.



                  Investigative fingerwork round the back revealed a possible problem with my router.



                  W to follow, once my shame has passed...

                        Rather than super-injunctions, given the normal tone of this thread maybe fantabulosa-injunctions....

                            All clues are musical or music-related (if Duran Duran can be so described... )

                              I don't mind an occasional bit of Duran Duran if truth be told but I just cannot see a way to link them and two possible Theobalds to "partial sympathy" at the moment. Just to let Taps know I have been considering it and he is not being ignored.

                              Edit: I won't be arround ce soir, a girlfriend and I will be watching 'An Education' with a huge bowl of roasted vegs

                                Ditto (minus the girlfriend, the film and the roast veg). I'd be interested to see what you think of 'An Education', Anna.
