      I think you should pause on your travels and get to know said Rawsthorne better, anton

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

          I didn't know that. It could be ok, as an alternative to one element of the question. I was thinking more of Mr R's output.

              You amended that post since I last looked at it !!! When I read it, it was merely talking about the new man in Flay's life!

                Behold the evidence M'Lud. There is no 'Edited' showing, which merely means the witness could have amended it within five seconds of posting. I submit that Your Lordship is a bit quick off the mark in these matters and, should, perhaps, peruse past evidence ...... at your leisure.

                    Get 'er Mrs Anna QC!!

                    You can edit for quite a time after, without 'Edited' showing... up to 5 minutes or so...

                    Anyway, pardon me for being attentive!

                    Learned Counsel could always make new posts rather than extending old ones, presumably with the express intention of bamboozling the judiciary

                      Learned Counsel has lost her little bit of paper with the answer - and is off to bed now! !!

                        Not sure about the first - but certainly many (and cf. the recording in the recent mega Sir CC box set) performances of the PC2. And wrote the Improvisations you mention.

                        One more, very easy.
