No, but I shall try to get them. I'm teaching WWII at the moment (and yes, it *is* a stretch), a subject for which I've never really understood the fascination. I think a combination of WWI poetry and Dorothy Sayers has always made the Great War stand out much more in my mind. Perhaps it's because the tragedy is more palpable.

Whenever you're drinking? Are you bartending at P/H's again?

Oh -- BTW, there's a song on the latest Linda Thompson album about a young woman whose love dies at Passchendaele ...

Just looking for a venue ... never thought about bartenders drinking for free -- but then I've only worked in bars where the owners actually check the amount of booze going out against the money that comes in ;-)

Since I'm buying, you should probably name the place. I would never offend a Bastard's ego ... except when telling him to feck off, 'cos he's being an eedjit!

And I think the LT song is the second track -- "Miss Murray"
