You are all extremely naughty boys!, Yes, you too Mr Garnett! Into the corner with the lot of you, with a pound of lemons apiece.


But, Miss, please Miss! I was a good boy trying to put a stop to it. It was Barrett Minor that started it. And now it's spread to the girls' playground too. This whole thing leaves a nasty taste in the mouth if you ask me and I'm not having it.


(And I'm not sure I could cope with a lemon after all those bananas this afternoon. Oooerfff. Groan)

In that case Master Garnett, report to Matron at the San. She will administer the necessary dose of castor oil. Most efficacious.

Beyond that I will say no more. My lips are sealed.

Oh thank you, Miss. I was rather hoping for that ...

Bitten off more than you can chew, George?    Grin

You could always wash it down with green tea and beer.

I'm not sure the good people of Hertfordshire are quite ready for my rampant post-cup-of-green-tea self, strina. In the interests of good public order I think I ought to spare them that.

... which allows me rather deftly if I say so myself to reinsert this thread smoothly into its topic, by way of

Purcell's air "Awful Matron, take thy seat" (which comes from the ode Great Parent, Hail to Thee, written for the centenary of Trinity College, Dublin).

Oh dear, this made me giggle:

The Yoneda lemma then yields the natural procedure to enlarge a preadditive category so that the enlarged version remains preadditive — in fact, the enlarged version is an abelian category, a much more powerful condition.

Hmm, it seems Gustav Holst wrote a series of choral works based on Tennyson poems, including one called "O swallow, swallow."
I think I've mentioned before that my grandmother's maiden name was Swallow. (It's only really funny if you know that my real surname isn't Now.)

Anyway, I'm, erm, delighted to see the amount of serious discussion of music I've sparked off by means of a carefully-placed post early this morning before I spent the rest of the day off-line. I think I deserve at least one-and-a-half bananas before I go to bed, no?

A follow-up to The Minotaur??

Actually I reall like this title, but

"Derridas: Jacques Derrida goes to a massage parlour" by Laurence Crane ( just bought Finnissy's new disk of his music yesterday; the titles were, in the end, the deal-clincher for me ... )
