I don't know whether this would be a suitable topic for a Wednesday discussion, Andy! What is pretty certain is that there weren't many Shakespeares proffering suggestions to B&O for the BL9 tagline. But it's quite funny to read through the ones that are there. I understand that the next competition is for the BL3. What's that going

When it rains it pours! I received my similarly shaped accolade in the post today, in a completely different country. Good timing, Lee! And thanks to everyone for the nod. Deeply appreciated. Congratulations, Keith!
