It seems Mr Ed. has left the building, and the group has reverted to
being about recumbent bikes! I have resubscribed - although these
days I do more miles on my Brompton.

Blimey Guy, you kept the Brompton acquisition quiet...

Apparently Guy has now got a Brompton. I'd never have guessed.

I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it.

Now onto the serious matters: which is likely to be more interesting
to small boys, Lelystad or Spezi?

I should say Spezi, most notably on the grounds that I believe CycleVision
is to be held at Zandvoort again next year. Lelystad without CycleVision is
duller than an unpolished thing left out in the rain...

So far as I know, neither of them wrote a horn concerto.

(Germersheim's Konzertstueck for four horns is well worth hearing,
though.)

True: on the other hand I was chatting with the brother-in-law of
Michael's bandmaster on Sunday and it transpires that he was playing
the double bass on the Hanover Band CD we bought (from the bloke who
was playing horn on it) the previous weekend. Small world!

Bah! Not on iTunes!
