>Since there are obviously more than 9, and heralds do not count higher than 8, the heraldic answer is "Semy of angels".

UT OH!
Um...what happened ot the other 2 fingers??
And what about the toes????

>or we could take the position that anything with 
                    wings is gonna be proud of them and therefore wave them about.<

But then they wouldn't be TRUE angels b/c God didn't creat angels that are Prideful/Boastful accoreidng to the common belief of the time, and so they would most likely be dhanceing simply with tier wings folded.

>what DOES one call a group of angels?)<

I would guess it's okay to use flock, but their notated as "Heavently Bodies", but then so are stars, so I guess that means Angels are Stars, no?

Always,
Tristan

Haf I alle in myn Inglis layd,
In symple speechs as I couthe,
That is lightest in manne's mouthe.
Alle for the luf of symple men,
That strange Inglis cannot ken."
