    Not bad for a Friday morning, though I say so myself! :-D That's me 'done in' for the rest of the day now (roll on 2:30 when I go home)!

        You know, I knew what postprandial meant so I guessed preprandial, but I have absolutely no idea how I know that word! Quite possibly one of DD's old clues! ;)

                  That sounds right to me, Mustafa. I've only just got here and I find that that woman from the sticks has solved it before I have even logged in! She is a fast woman you know? Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. :-D

                                          Sorry - When I had posted the original message I hadn't done a refresh so don't see the 5. Plus I have to say it's impressive the amount of messages in this thread. I haven't seen a CCC this busy in a while. Maybe you need to do a quiz as well! Really make our brain work with both the problems. I prefer the maths ones. Cryptic crosswords are not for me!
