Ah! Looked up money-spinner and it says "British". No wonder. We call them flippers- house-flippers, stock-flippers. And we flip coins too!

Well John XX is apparently still out waving to the people, but that smartypants tony's answers are no doubt correct.

I would agree Mr A, but thanks to Jolan (again) for getting the old grey matter trudging around.

1. AULD LANG SYNE
3 HITTITE but not sure of parsing. Rather stuck on Teti having beena Pharaoh. But it seems right, after much perusal of the Wikipedia entry on Syria, very helpful

Hello everyone, Ari (loved the broad band), Jazzy, P@, Andyc, Relf, GK, Mary6, vrk(Welcome!), ab (great no. 3 alternative but were they Syrian?), Ros (Yes! Just a dusting of snow. Walled around near Llanberis Pass and old snow frozen solid. Temp -1C; dunno what that is in Aritalk). Hope I haven't missed anyone.

Finally Tony. Yes folks, absolutely right again. His parsing is almost an exact copy of my own, so no need to post it.

I hate to say this (lol) but ouir outing was to celebrate my 76th, which was today. Groan! Actually, I'm as fit as the proverbial butcher's dog, diolch byth!

I'm off now to have my usual 8-courser and will peek in much later.

Haven't noticed much change in my broadband as yet.

Farewell for the mo.

John

Glad you enjoyed
