2 Feathers, Was "The Skeleton in Armor" "Alonzo the Brave and the Fair Imogene"? I love that song. Made popular by the great Sam Cowell in the mid 19th Century. I rarely find anyone who will sit still long enough to listen when I sing it. You have given me hope. The nursing-home is only about 50 years away if I live as long as your Mum. Joy
