Welcome Rahab. Do join in - and don't be afraid to ask if you're bemused!! :D (We are in a continuous state of bemusement). :lol:

EDIT And yes I have just changed the spelling. I misread your name originally and thought you had a touch of the Amy Winehouses... :lol: (Sorry about that).

OK LAT - EVEN though you posted this, I still didn't twig that I'd misread the name. (See amended post above). Abject apologies. :oops: :lol:

Confession time here - rahab is my sister. I have been trying to persuade her to join us for a while. I didn't know she had until a message appeared elsewhere which made sense to me - a case of predictive text malfunction she had had earlier in the day.

And I hadn't known about the rahab nickname. :roll:

Hi there Rahab - nice to meet you.

As you're in the company of puzzlers (Ok... of VERY varying ability) I didn't need LAT's confession. I saw the post with 'inside knowledge' which made me wonder.
