Hello, Elle,
Do you follow me with the parse.
Genuine is "honest"
Commonly genuine (setter means a Cockney) is " 'onest.

Hi, Rusty!
Thank you!
I should have been able to get the parsing for 23a........ am I dim or what!
Regarding 7d... I did see "house" for building" but would never have got the rest!
"Series of pots" for a "break" was well over my head!
Right......and I have fairly quickly dispatched the GK puzzle, so I can now go out feeling vindicated!
We are off out for a walk...it is fresh and pleasant so it should be an enjoyable outing.
I hope you enjoy the racing......

Hello, Elle!
Derby was a great race.
My horse finished well down.
Not heard who the wildcard is yet?
Been a lot of rain here, but it is fine now!

Good evening, Rusty!
I am glad that you enjoyed the racing...but sorry that your horse did not do well!
I think BGT will make a "big build up" to the announcement of their Wild card....
I doubted that we would ever find out before the commencement of the Final show.
I think it will most probably be Sarah - though I have a sneaking wish for it to be Jamie.......
How will it work - will the judges all have to agree ? - or can it be a majority vote?
Time has simply rushed by.......almost time for the programme to start......
Dearie me .......I'd better go switch on the television!
I wonder who will win........

Hello, Elle!
It does not matter about my horse!
The race is the thing!
I have no idea how the wildcard.
I have a hunch it won't be Sarah, though.
Hope it is good!

I am wrong....again!
It is Sarah.

Hi, Rusty?
Is it me...or have all the acts so fa,r just slightly lost their edge?

Hello, Elle,
I am enjoying it!
I have voted twice, for Julia and the Mersey Girls, and also for Issy.
And Diversity is still to come!

Hi, Rusty!
Oh, I have enjoyed it ...I didn't meant to imply that I hadn't.......
But I thought the first acts had lost some of their previous "edge".
Maybe because of nerves?
For me, it greatly improved as Sarah performed...I thought my favourite four were definitely Sarah, Issy , Daliso and Tokio!
I thought you could only vote once?
I am still unable to decide for whom I should vote?
Oh dear!

Hello, Elle
You can vote as many times as you like.
Sarah had a choir backing her.
Is that fair?
I hope Issy wins!
And Diversity are as good as ever!
