Hi Frank,
Hey, glad you live a far distance off!
I'm not sure you need the words: "with sound" - cos it'd better not be
anything else!
And I'm not sure about the swan... (metaphorically meaning dance). I guess I
sort of see swans as more graceful - and a really aggressive, foot-stomping,
overweight meatloaf loving bird might be a goose (gooosing around is, erm,
interesting), an emu... (?)
He-he, I like it.
Bob
