The rubberneckers rarely shop anywhere else, I gather...
"...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..."

Cimarosa at Lidl. Becoming surprisingly popular with the green welly and Subaru crowd, so I gather...Originally posted by Caliban View Posthttp://www.lidl.com.mt/cps/rde/xchg/SID-80179979-4AE1DECF/lidl_mt/hs.xsl/5083.htm

Well done, Calibs, but fhg's turn for D.
The only other item of trivia I would add is that I remember asking Evelyn Rothwell (Lady B) on a visit to our school to sign my LP copy of Italian Oboe Concertos featuring the Cimarosa. Which she did, graciously, and I still have it.Comment

I thought of Cimarosa right away but didn't want the task of another letter so kept quiet. (Easy to say after the event!)
Anyway, I didn't know anything about the plinky thing and was thinking that the buffa would be Il Maestro di Capella.

Is 'Top Gear' the radio, rather than the TV, programme?Comment

Only thing I have come up with is .... was there trouble at The Proms?Comment

The driving force (boom! boom!) behind the Radio 1 programme was, I believe, Keith Drummond (which is a kind of double D, I guess)Comment

No, not Ms Parton!
... and neither the TV nor the Radio version of Top Gear: although the D concerned was probably thinking of the Radio version.[FONT=Comic Sans MS][I][B]Numquam Satis![/B][/I][/FONT]Comment
