The Internationally Popular . . . www.musicsmiles.com Countdown - Issue 76c Welcome to the August, 2008 release of our rapidly developing 'MusicSmiles' web site. The 'All Seasons' version is again extended (by increasingly popular demand). If you enjoy your visit, please tell your friends about us.
*
* * STOP PRESS * * * We have updated this 'All Seasons' edition which includes an introduction (well, sort of . .!) to the Gilbert & Sullivan story; together with sections entitled Spring; Summer; Autumn; Winter; and the Royal Jubilee. Also the very popular full MusicSmiles railway story of 'Hellfire Jack' (with a link to his burial site); and a saucy Victorian steam-railways song. One of our songs is dedicated to Rugby Union Football, and another to Footie (soccer) (click 'What's New' and follow the links). OR simply click 'Contents' at the foot of each page to make your choice. To see your choice of last month's top tunes visit the 'Facts & Figures' page. Keep checking our progress, enjoy our music and stories etc, and continue to contact us with your comments and suggestions and help us develop MusicSmiles.com . . . There are lots of goodies being cooked up for your delight: music to sing along with or listen to, stories to read, and there's lots to do - with puzzles, have-a-go quizzes, and other interactive challenges. There are also opportunities to discuss the topics, let us know your views, and have lots & lots of serious fun! Our target audience age is from 4 to 941 2! And admission is free. Add

Meanwhile if you want to see and hear more now, click on any of the links at the top and left-side of the pages, or in the Contents, or see What's New, OR click here to look up The G&S Story, check out our Spring Promises!, trip to our Summer Sounds!, breeze over to Autumn Tones!, treat yourself to some Winter Warmers, or visit our special Golden Jubilee celebrations . . . The fanfare on this page is our arrangement of We Sail the Ocean Blue from the G&S opera 'HMS Pinafore'. Footnote 1: Whilst not wishing to impose a censorship on visitors, the MusicSmiles team appreciate that realistically identified age limits (say 4 - 94) might be helpful. (These should not be regarded as strictly imposed boundaries, but rather as elementary guidelines.)! Also see Footnote 2 below. Return to story Footnote 2: Following a special request from John & Michèle in France (on behalf of Pépé, who was over 94 years of age at the time) we extended our Age Policy to include visitors of any age, particularly if they are valued supporters of MusicSmiles!
