Thanks Kettledrum,

I suppose it depends on your accent?

kettledrum

I'm pronouncing Faust as it is in German - ie F ow st !

But the best I can come up with for your other one is eel vetter . Can you make any sense of that ?

Thanks again.

I'm thinking along the lines of 'Mad decline at the set ' becoming ' Sad decline at the Met' and Violetta is from an opera.

JUNKMAN

I thin the reference is to the opera La Traviata - there is a character called Violetta, who I think dies.
so couild it be ...watched in Sad decline at the Met ?

dr john

Yep, Violetta dies of TB at the end of La Traviata.

kettledrum

I think you're absolutely right Kayakamina. Violetta dies of consumption - a very sad decline - in La Traviata.

Even though I'd sent me entry off I still wanted to completely understand the reasoning for the answers.

Now it's fingers crossed.
