Maximus Gluteous started noisily washing his bits during God save the King, huzzah! A republican cat!!! Either that or he (like most of the audience by the looks and the lipreading) didn't like Brittens' arrangement.... everyone's a critic.

He seemed to like the Black Sabbath I had on this morning, he tried to stick his head in the tape deck - well, the speakers are high on the wall and he's got a dicky knee where I broke him last week.....

(It was an accident, he landed awkwardly and ripped his crustacean ligaments or something..... I've been paying ever since....).
