(Monday) The The Inaugural Dozz-ville Challenge Award For The Discombulated now has an anthem/theme tune as spotted by NCO MarkyD.

Carmina Burana by Orff - the answer to 80 down on Saturday. The words will resonate with all the team aware of Second Lieutenant I_will (classics div) and her portable lap harp.

Hac in hora

sine mora

corde pulsum tangite;

or put another way:

So at this hour

without delay

pluck the vibrating strings;

So, next time the ad comes on the tv think of the The Inaugural Dozz-ville Challenge Award For The Discombulated.

(At present am viewing bikes on eBay. Got to start training.)

O Fortuna :) How appropriate! Great choice. I'll add it to my Discombobulated playlist for added incentive when the going gets tough (like those first few shivering moments before stepping into the shallow end) Have a good day Dozz :)

We could try singing a rousing chorus before commencing the race!

OH lovely bit of music there. Great choice. The lyrics can be made up of course. You just sing things like fish fish fish nish, nish nish fish nish tresh nish fish nish then a few ooohs and aaaahs and that's it. No-one will notice

Hmm. Am thinking of a title for sparks. I'm getting the feeling for Corporal Sparky (electrics div).

Or maybe Sparkly.
