My mind boggled at the thought of a schizophrenic S&K pie. Sorry, I think my set of P "clues" were a little too obscure this time. But we got there in the end.Pacta sunt servanda !!!Comment

Did you make that up, mercs?
Testing question, Flay! Fauré is one of my favourite composers and I never knew that was his middle name, nor did I think to look! Bye bye Miss American Pie... so the 'buddy' was female..! Didn't think of that either. And I'd never heard of that Beatles song, shame on me
But as mercia asks, what was the morbidly/cheerfully aspect?
"...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..."

AH! Good point! Well I was way outside my comfort zone with that question, so I'll just shut up and eat another mince pie.

Originally posted by mercia View Post lots of details required though please I just know that Quarrel is the boatman in the Bond book/film set in the Caribbean (Thunderball? I always get confused, can't be bothered to google!!) and it means disagreement and also fits the battle clue in general terms...
OK I've stopped being lazy
La Querelle des Bouffons was the theatrical / operatic disagreement (otherwise called La Guerre des Bouffons - the 'battle' reference) in the 1750s about whether French or Italian opera was best.
Not sure bout the 1890 thing though...
