    Not a lot of people know this, but my surname is Caine. My ambition is to play Beethoven with a cockney accent.

                  "O Mary, ye's be clad in silk" from WoO 156 Scottish Songs.

                  Warning: Every second folksong setting begins with "O" or "Oh"!

                  Maybe the Don should declare a moratorium on the letter O?

                  Megan, where do you buy your "N"s ?
