Let's see what you Make of this:

Extra clue, mewonders?

Is Percy encouraging us to be rude;

And Morris is so sensitive!

perhaps?

[mercia]

And wasn't the reason Wagner contemplated a castrato because Klingsor (the second syllable of his name important here) is ... err ... "mutilated"? (Wotan got away comparatively easily with the loss of an eye - but perhaps that just reflects my own priorities?) Hence Kundry's mocking his chastity at the start of Act Two.

ah thanks, I must swot up on Parsifal, it sounds fun.
what a punning thread this is

[Anna]

Not getting very far... Gustav is Mahler

No, not Mahler. There are more than one kind of sticks.

Extra clue, mewonders?
And Morris is so sensitive! perhaps?

'Make' is not a clue. Why do you think Morris is so sensitive?

[Northender]

A Mr Kemp reportedly Morris-danced from Norwich to London. And Percy Grainger might be encouraging us to Mock Morris?

[Nick Armstrong]

Yes, of course it is.

'Make' is not a clue. Why do you think Morris is so sensitive?

Did Percy Mock him?

[Northender]

Is Wyn Morris on the podium for the Mahler?

[Nick Armstrong]

Is Wyn Morris on the podium for the Mahler?

AH! cross-thread pollination!!

You're on form today Northender!

[Anna]

A Mr Kemp reportedly Morris-danced from Norwich to London. And Percy Grainger might be encouraging us to Mock Morris?

Yes

Did Percy Mock him?

Yes, you and Northender got it exactly same time re Percy but he also got Kemp's Morris. Now, who gets the Gustav who is not Mahler and his stick? And nothing to do with Wyn Morris.

[Northender]

Anthony Gustav Morris?

[Anna]

Anthony Gustav Morris?

No. Was Percy's surname Morris .......

[Northender]

I'm obviously having trouble finding my Percy....

[Anna]

Fair enough - but, just out of interest..

[Nick Armstrong]

I thought you said "of course" it was Gustav Mahler!?!

[Northender]

Anna - in no way an aspersion on your question-setting abilities -it was a link (that didn't work) to a piece by Anthony Gustav Morris, which he was conducting. He seems to be (or have been) a pretty prolific composer.

[Anna]

I thought you said "of course" it was Gustav Mahler!?!

No, I didn't - well I sort of did because I'd read your post wrong and instantly corrected one second later. Not my fault your internet connection is so fast ........ Will you ever forgive me ........... <goes down on bended knees in total abject supplication and looks wistful emoticon>
