What first interested me in opera - after seeing Diva about 10 times, my sister found the boxed set in FNAC.

Catalani La Wally Ebben, and the incomparable Callas.

He had a huge schools rep, but then appeared to get lost for a few years.

He looked good last night, albeit against the Treviso 2nd team.

To tell you the truth, I'm not sure what his point was.

Statto I'm surprised at you going along with the "his average/sporadic form in green is somebody else's fault" mantra re Sexton.
