the gallery is the GODS (right at top of Theatre - the seats which made you feel giddy as a child, perhaps) and the letters of that maintain(hold) one custon - a usage.

I hope that that is understandable.

Thanks Kemlo, makes total sense. I thought USAGE was something to do with MAINTAIN but didn't get the GODS bit.
Good, it's all done now....thanks to everyone
