Congratulations, Mattrom, but could you parse it for me.
Must be a reference I'm not familiar with.

Also thanks for the vote, & to Ixion.

Excellent & timely clip, Claxby.

Congrats mattrom and thanks, claxby.

syzygy - I think it goes like this:
Choice = SPECIAL
of French = DE
uniform = LIVERY
"Singing telegram" - definition by example.

Hope that's right, mattrom.

What a nice post-Christmas present!
Thanks to Chris for parsing (correctly, of course) and to Peterm, BBM2, Ginge & Syzygy for the votes.

I found the clip quite moving - thanks Claxby for hosting and the prize.
Will be back next year, until then, Happy New Year to all.

Thanks for the parsing, Chrise. So obvious, but I've been in & out, so only took a quick peek.

Happy New Year to all.
