I haven't an OED, I get access to it online thanks to teaching at the Dublin Institute of Technology

I have a Grove, the 20-volume dictionary of music, but I don't suppose it could masquerade as an OED.

My son, now I think of it, has the one-volume OED. Seriously, it comes in a big box with a powerful magnifying glass.

Hi Rosie, I've had an idea, but rather than spoil the surprise I'll mail an example to the artists.
