Thanks AB
Just could not see it. I had d?a? but was not 100% on the "d". I live in Orkney though not a native. Have been here quite a long time. Thanks again
Regards

I'm intrigued, AB - did you guess Orkney just from the nursery (the first three pages - at least - on Google)?

No Google needed, I once worked in Orkney many years ago.
Peedie is the local word for small and breeks is trousers. I saw the nursery sign etc while I was in Kirkwall on many occasions.
