        You ain't no philologist, Stephe, it's Anglo-Saxon and there's
only ever been one English Pope. Who did, I suspect, nonetheless speak
Latin.

        This is another way of saying hullo, I'm still signed up but
having a lot of trouble finding time for e-mail just at the moment, but
expect me to recover this situation fairly sharply in October if not
before as the British Academy have finally seen the path of light and
truith and given me fudning for my Ph.D. so I shall be able to get back to
the Vale of Academe full-time at which point I may even get up-to-date
with BOC-L mail. You have been warned :-) Yours,
                                                 Jon

ObCD: BOC - _Secret Treaties_ (`Mes Belles Dames Sarat' - *how* good is
        this CD?
