Cello to Bellow!!

So its Tuesday and at lunchtime we had a classical rendition of Christmas carols to raise money for charity. We had Richard on cello and his sister on flute - her name eludes me, I'm not being rude, I think its Cathy but cant be sure! - We ate cheese, chocolate and crackers, drank wine by the box and managed to drag £180 from people for the privilege. All in all quite a successful day. Then, to really round off my day of classic music and culture I went to an Iron Maiden concert!
To say they ruled would be to cheapen the word rule. To say they were the bomb would just be lame. To say they fully and wholeheartedly kicked the proverbial ass out of every single tune they did while looking cool as you like and rocking the place so hard it made Coventry's cathedral blowing up look like a wet tissue being eaten by a pigeon, would be closer to the truth than Saddams balls were to his larynx when he heard the yanks coming down his steps.
The Maiden rule, to say otherwise is to lie, and people don't like liars.
