    I was just about to ask who S-S would have been writing a Coronation March for but I've found out. We gave him a medal for it too.

      Absolutely fascinating: a tribute to the informative value of the AA site and of anton's intellect when Lady G allows it a bit of leeway!

        Could this mean he holds sway over Mercia?

            I have no intellect only Wiki and the Oxford Dictionary of Classical Music (and Lady G of course!); mercia remains my role model and Rumpole my conscience.

                I wasn't sure if Caliban was offering a commendation or a coronation.

                  Simply a compliment and a confirmation of why I enjoy this thread so much

                          Mercia, is a bit of a hero to me. I sometimes wonder how he connects seemingly unconnectables. And a phone call has established the whisky was Laphroaig. So all's right in the world.

                            That's a relief - So you'll be leaving some for us!

                            (And please keep off the Lagavulin - You wouldn't like anyway. )

                              Gladly Don. In fact, if I could, I'd send all you lovely people a crate of it if that meant I didn't have to drink it!
