      agreed.
      AmpH is on a long absence too.
      I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

      I am not a number, I am a free man.

        We miss his informed comment on HIPPS performances and his expertise in the techniques and performance of horn playing.

        Tony has not posted any messages since December.
        He posted yesterday - I responded to his message about George Malcolm.

          Is M. Vinteuil working his way through a crate of Louis Roederer Cristal Brut 2005?

          I miss him ignoring my more scandalous posts.

                  No one seems either to have seen or heard of him since he was last allegedly seen leaving the Grape & Grain Beer Festival last October clutching a copy of that Friday's canteen menu and several 12-note row permutations, looking much the better for wear, and rolling down the adjacent 1 in 10 Anerley Hill in the direction of Crystal Palace main station.

                  Serioously, though, I hope he's all right.

                  Perhaps french frank knows something? and also about Handsomefortune, now missing for must be at least year?

                    I think 3VS has been posting, now and again, on r3ok, so is presumed ok. Of Handsomefortune I have no information.

                          Handsomefortune used to disappear for long periods when we knew each other on the Beeb Woman's Hour board, as I remember.

                          I last heard from her via a PM around Christmas 2012

                            It's possible (just) that Vinteuil, in a fit of pique regarding the misuse of a subjunctive half-way through the C. K. Scott Moncrieff translation of À l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleurs, (In The Shadow of Young Girls in Flower), Book 2 of À la recherche du temps perdu, has decided to translate anew the whole thing himself.

                              M. V(inteuil) is back with his ever learned quote (A Night at the Opera).

                                Scottycelt? Didn't always (ever?) agree with him, but he was good on some topics I think.
                                Also hope that AIC (an inspector calls) surfaces eventually.
