yes Ivory much better, just because you're on first names with him :)) I'll give you the benefit on this one !!

morning twix :))

Hi all.

Anthony Eden was the Tory Prime Minister from 1955 to 1957.

The Reform Act was passed in 1832 and abolition of slavery was finally achieved in 1838.
I'm on your side, Twix!
Question Author
oh dear, sorry Sharon, and partially my fault, but twix is correct with Grey ....I hadn't got that far :((
I just guessed with Eden, so you could be correct with Grey. I concede.

Question Author
apologies, twix ....my bad :(( xx
Seekerz, don't worry about it. If I must confess, it was a drunken guess!!

Goodnight all.
