Who wants the Z/A?

Time for you to start the Alphabet again.

Time for you to start the Alphabet again.

I hope nobody will object if I leave it until tomorrow.

Sorry about the delay: we have no Gas this morning (oh, do stop sniggering at the back!) so all is frantic and chilly.

So, a quick (?) A to link

Mozart
Vermeer
Sweelinck

I could see a link in that Vermeer painted The Astronomer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:VE...vre,_1688).jpg

There are asteroids named after Mozart (Mozartia) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1034_Mozartia and Sweelinck http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7621_Sweelinck

[Flay]

In fact there is a Vermeer asteroid too!

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

Well I never did! (A sad but true comment on my social skills )

I was right: it is more interesting than what's on the card!

Stick to this planet ... and continent.

I think, Flay, since you've got the asteroids, you shouldn't take this sitting down!
