Yeah, great stuff. IIRC, the "Debussy's mum" gag was from their "Not Only but Also" TV series. They were having one of their off-kilter conversations, in this case about music, and Pete kept making off-hand comments about "Debussy's mum". Just a couple of throwaway lines and it took me ages to pick up the joke. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
