From The Dance Halls of Montezuma....

As the al-Megrahi release debacle rolls on, with Libyan triumphalism humiliating Britain, the government has decided to reply with the deployment of a rapid-response Brass Band from Wales.

According to the BBC the Burry Port Town Band are threatening to perform the popular Welsh folksong Sospan Fach (Little Saucepan) in front of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi!

In a classic piece of celtic understatement, band leader Mr John quipped:

"we're representing Wales so it should be interesting"

As someone who was once stuck on a ferry with a Welsh Male Voice Choir, I can only feel pity for the people of Tripoli.
