    It's gotta be that. I'll eat my mule if not.

      Well done Michael - I'll have to make the next lot even harder! The studio where Elgar composed at Brinkwells was moved in 1929 to nearby Bedham and you can stay there as a holiday retreat!

        Well worked out Michael

        Where's the S in the clue for Brinkwells?

          As a 'cellist I thought you'd get that one straight away and had second thoughts about including it!

            That was the giveaway for me. I was floundering around cliffs and down wells until Peter's clue meant it had to be a cello concerto. I only know of two or three so I went for the usual suspects.

                I think Michael did incredibly well and I'm surprised they were all answered so quickly. Round 3 is in progress but from now on, new rounds will be posted at the beginning of the month - I'll close this thread now, so until then 'Les Adieux' and thanks to everyone who took part.
