Sorry Lash a century K
Question Author
thank you
Can I suggest that you google "Charley's Aunt" & then all will become clear!
Thanks Kettledrum . I thought E wanted clarification of how i had arrived at the answer 'Charley's Aunt' but agree the response to my post was ambiguous. K
I don't think your post was at all ambiguous, but I'm afraid you & I, Kayakamina are showing our age by being familiar with Charley's Aunt !

sorry for confusion - I had meant explanation of solution. However, I don't feel sending people off to Google is in the spirit of AB - providing answers to questions is what it is truly for however easy it is finding explanations elsewhere

sorry, grumble over - thanks to both Ks for your help
E
I disagree Endanger: it SHOULD be for questions you can't find answers to elsewhere on the net (eg, cryptics). It's annoying to many ABers, and the height of laziness, when people ask questions that can easily be Googled or found on imdb etc.
Question Author
fair enough Quizmonkey - I take your point.
We may just agree to disagree as one of the charms of AB I find is non experts giving their own answers not others found on the web.
thanks for your help
