  2. I've just bought in Oxfam for five quids, Stef. It is from 1916 and has some amazing engravings, Stef.

    Yes, it is, Andreushka!

    Oscar,

    Yesterday I discovered that Enrique Granados drowned in the Atlantic Ocean, 1914, after the passenger liner he was on board was torpedoed by a WWI German U-boat. Was Enrique escaping Europe, or returning to compose again on his home turf?

  4. It wasn't a torpedo what sank the boat. Granados himself exploded.

  5. You should put up an 'Oscar-cam' on YouTube so we can all watch you draw & look at your forehead-

  6. Always a pleasure to watch you draw but the chap who was filming had obviously drunk so much beer he couldn't keep the camera steady & focuses mostly on the back of your left hand!
