No. 77. I had this metropolis thing you mentioned, but can't rationalise it with the clue, except by looking in the edges of the page. Is that the way you're rationalising it - or am I missing something in the clue?

Now you're mystifying me with talk of the edges of the pages! Back to first principles: look up none-so-pretty in Chambers (as I obscurely suggested last time) and you'll be given the answer.
Question Author
Mystifying you again? Story of my life lately!!

I don't have the Chambers they use, which is why I can't look it up. Not to worry - I'll find it eventually.
Question Author
Confirmed.
Nobody should be without a Chambers. It's a good job that I don't know who you are otherwise I'd be moved to buy you one for your birthday, and I've done that before. (On one occasion a Chambers and a Brewer's.) One should always help the deprived.
Question Author
Ha! What a gentleman!! I have a pretty comprehensive collection of dictionaries including Chambers combined dictionary/encyclopaedia - an enormous tome - but that doesn't appear to include everything the ordinary Chambers includes. I really should get one before the next quiz - it would make life easier!
