Mally/  The answer has to rhyme with the answer to Consortium (6) which could be cartel.

[vonjon]

sorry mallyh. the full question is

5a)3=wedding, 7= heaven, what does 8=? (4)

5b) consortium (6)

so answer to A will rhyme with answer B

Apparently the traditional gift is salt. Who would  be delighted to receive that?!!

[mallyh]

thankyou Hazlinny x

[Romanski]

The answer will be hell. The question refers to one variant of the old magpie rhyme which begins one for sorrow , two for mirth, three for a wedding, four for a birth and goes on to seven is heaven ,eight is hell.
