Thank you escher, But I am aware of that.

I didn't mention that this is a cryptic clue.

So I'm asking where the 'Your answer's' come into play.

Oh my. The penny has just dropped.
Glad this isn't my regular xword.
How disappointing from a cryptic setter.
Or should that be 'Craptic'

Sorry, I couldn't resist :-)

I was in the waiting room at the QMC.
Spotted a paper on the chair and I had a pen in my pocket.
What was I to do ???
