(which could be my fault.) i don't know of the Trianon as a place, though i have recollections of an orchestra with the same name (i think)
the bus places the country as does 'on his jack'
the last 'on' in the 1st line makes me stumble
apart from those two points i thought it a good small write. the music was a bonus.
i wish i could have been more help. perhaps one of the others will be more clearer than I.

thanks for the read.

It might well be a 'Fan's Tale' -- my main interset in the man is his mad name -- like all those Finnish racing drivers. No doubt normal for him, being a Finn.... I see that I have self-identified with the bus-- surely the world has caught up tho?-- and colloquialism, which may have got to Oz, but I doubt to N America. I agonised as to whether, in this phrase, 'Jack' should retain its capital. Hmm...

You are quite correct about the Trianon, and it was only in my mind because they are to visit, and I am to see them, at Snape, where my sister-in-law will also sing. (Third item when I just googled Trianon Snape just now.)

Thanks for taking the trouble.
