Lamb Barbacoa Lamb Madras Incik (Turkish lamb shank) Roast lamb Lamb chops Lamb shish Lamb sandwiches Stilton

Space Oddity Killer Queen The Thing That Should Not Be Voodoo Child Evil Woman Riders on the Storm The Unforgiven Iron Man Black Dog Baba O'Riley War Pigs Not forgetting Whole Lotta Rosie, the giant shambling mound; perhaps a resentful, dispossessed Rose Garden
