uncle-w,sorry about giving wrong answer for 32, see above

No problem Leon.I've just realised that I have 25 outwards and 23 inwards. Something else incorrect? Have grid cut out and folded but no idea as to what is going on!

Follow the instructions in the preamble EXACTLY to match in all of the sectors. I put a circle around the squares that were affected. This gives you the squares to cut out. You are left with something in the shape of the (thematic word). The second quotation is fairly easy to find. Keep going....it's worth it in the end - you can hang the resulting grid on the wall to impress your friends!

Just finished, I might even send this one in and frame a copy (not really),spent far too much time on it,again don't hesitate to ask if anyone needs help, and thanks again to all the help on this thread

I assume one ends up with a snowflake pattern but still can't see which letters have to be cut out.Probably being a bit 'twp' as they say in this part of the isle.

uncle_w, I assume you have folded in six sections( one with LEUCOJUM inside) mark the 14 letters that were omitted from wordplay (the snow bunting)and the corresponding CELLS in each section, you should end up with 14 marked letters in each section the same, which you can cut out when folded,took me ages to fathom this bit out.
