Dear TrciaT

There are so many of your supporters out there who are desperate to help explain why the answer is "twenty", if they can.

However, if you do not tell them what the question was, they cannot justify any answer. Does this make sense? Give the question and, if possible, the number of letters, and you will be surprised at the unstoppable flood of responses.

Yours ever

Sorry ! The clue was :"Take Five"here? You need the score.

Thanks, TrciaT

The clue number "here" is 25. If you take 5 from it, it leaves twenty, which is "a score" in slang.

Hope this helps

Thank you. I''ll be able to sleep tonight now! I had assumed it had something to do with the jazz tune by Dave Brubeck called Take Five.I hate to have an answer but not understand why.Thanks again.

You've touched my heart. Dave Brubeck is an enduring idol of mine.

Sometimes the simplest of answers are the best.

Good night and God bless!
