in what sense "spectacular"? Could you let us, the uninitiated, know how to differentiate between a spectacular and a fairly mediocre collection of sweet little old ladies?

Mark H was been particularly feisty recently. I think that 2 millionth post/Anthony crush thing has got to his head.

Just done a quick Google search for Acorn Records - secondhand CDs.

Reynard - you might be thinking of Portsmouth, which certainly has a massive university.

Dr C - if you see a man in his late twenties named Ian Beaumont, say hello from me. He'll know who I am!

Plymouth University is very large - more students than Portsmouth, Robin - but it's not even the largest in England, let alone Europe. Unless there's some arcane counting method I don't know about.

Thanks everybody. I have also to go to a wedding in Polperro. I am responsible for the music there, so plenty of Boney M (see Abba thread - actually don't) and The Stockholm Monsters (maybe not).

There is. But you don't get to learn it until you have sat in the Vice-Chancellor's Cabinet of a major university in SW England.

Gah! That'll T me for doing my R on the HESA site.

BTW, major = large?
