          How about allowing an AA Virgin, Roslynmuse, to set a puzzle? Just wondering, as she got the clinching answer? (I won't be around because I may yet again burn thiings, but some new blood ......... ) Just a thought?

            I'd second that, if Northo is willing!

            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

              Crikey Moses, Cali - I thought Roslynmuse was one of The Sisterhood, of which we need more - I now find out, she is a bloke! But, I'll be offline shortly, so sort yourselves out!!
              Edit: a new competitor would be really nice

                Like Barkis, Northender is willing. What is Roslynmouse's reply to Anna's excellent suggestion?

                  @ Northender - v generous - but you did the groundwork!

                  OK - I'll give it a go

                  Which 'K' links a talkative composer, a bag of monkeys and a nursery rhyme? (I've been having a look back over previous puzzles and hope I've got the method right!)

                    DEAR ROSLYNMUSE .... can you forgive me for misspelling your name?
                    Would you like to set us a question?
                    (Cross-posted - I see you've set one - jolly good!)

                      I just read it as a term of endearment...!

                        Yes Barkls was much in my mind too!

                        Great to have Ros here whatever the gender!

                          (Mind you, if it's endearments you want....just you wait until Caliban and Anna get going! )

                              The only 'talkative' composer I can think of is Khatchaturian

                                Seems like a klassik kwestion to me. Amusing, bamboozling, and I have no idea yet of the answer
