Many thanks Lie-In King. Don't you ever sleep??

[Lie-in King]

Happy to help :-)

Lol! My bed is calling to me even now...

[jeaniusalso]

Sweet dreams to you. One presumes a lie-in will be the order of the day??

jeanius - Apologies for the late reply, I missed your post...

...You'll note that I'm still here! I don't seem able to live up to my name these days... :-)

Don't worry Lie-in King, I lived up to your name for you and was safely snoozing when you replied at 1.45. (1.45 !!!)
Talking of not living up to names - I had serious problems being a jeanius with Jumbo 799. It's complete ... but ... not happy with my answer to 40d Item on reservation sounds a bit soft to fill pastry case (5,4). I've got peace pipe, but can't see why!! The definite letters are p?a?e / ?i?e. Once your genius (it looks wrong spelt like that) brain has had its lie-in I'd really appreciate clarification, help me see the light!?
