It is hard going. I know it is a long book and nearly 20 years since I last read it but I am still surprised at how much of it I had forgotten.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10600329429654831610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7767918086420070312.post-60114667074137430162015-09-24T18:59:02.061+01:002015-09-24T18:59:02.061+01:00I shall give W & P yet another go, Z.

But apparently, the royalties can be back-dated and it'll cost the owners of the arrangement of the tune millions of pounds, if people claim what they've paid.
