    Cheers Yorkie. What would be classified by an RV number apart from vehicle length ?
    For a bonus RV 269, RV315, RV293 and RV297 would be collectively known as what ?

    All yours Frenchie. RV comes from Ryom Verzeichnis, the now standard catalogue of the works of Vivaldi. Over to you.

    Correct cologne. This was an essential ingredient for making hard-paste porcelain, which is fired at remarkably high temperatures and results in a luminous finish that is ideal for decoration.

    Nope <laugh> Other World champions have been Afghanistan and Scotland. But the most successfull country in this has been Mexico. Competitors in this are not allowed to compete in more than one World Cup.
