I have noted that some newer music (Beatles is an example) is rhythmically complicated to a degree that most fans never notice. A study of the sheet music will reveal many of these things.
In 'Memory' (Cats) bar #7 is in 10/8 and bar #8 is 12/8; bar #9 is 6/8. This of course completely upsets anyone who is using an "electronic drummer". (perhaps intended by Mr Lloyd Webber  ;))
The fact that it is a kind of "Waltz" is already difficult to understand by many.

What I always found particularly difficult was when one has to play different time signatures in each hand, as in, e.g. one of Chopin's 3 Opus Posthumus Etudes (can't remember which one at present and when I went to play the disc, found it absent from its box. Where the heck has it gone?) in which the right hand plays 3/4 while the left plays 4/4. These three little pieces are deceptively difficult, while sounding easy. But then, my name's not Martha. :)
For 3s against 4s 'Honky Tonk Train Blues' by Meade "Lux" Lewis and recorded by Joe Loss is great fun on the piano.

He can have mine to cry on if he likes and if Anne doesn't mind.

Well... both David & I tend to assume it is a woman or a grumpy old fart driving in front of us if they are driving in an erratic manner. Driving home from the council meeting yesterday the driver of the car in front was speeding up to 60 then slowing back down to 40 then... When I managed to safely overtake it was a grumpy old fart  :D

You wouldn't mind, I'm sure, the Ann who might, but won't, is my sister Ann in New Zealand  :D

Right - Here we go - Maggi's brother-in-law Bill sent her the joke above. Bill's wife is Ann. Ann is Maggi's sister. Bill and Ann live here in Dunedin and I know them both. Said I'd give Bill hell. Maggi said don't, I said he could cry on my shoulder if Anne didn't mind but I should have said Ann, not Anne. Anne (Wright) right? said why would I (she) mind, Maggi said you (she) wouldn't but Ann who might won't, Annethony tried to introduce Ann other altogether and... etc etc.....Now we're ALL confused. Time for coffee and a prozac.
