Sorry about the Bestor typo, it should have been Bestir, as per the parsing.

Many thanks, NACW, I'm on the way now!

Thanks, Matakari. Glad you're making progress. I hope you enjoy the rest, I hope too that you work out the 'clued light' mentioned in the preamble - last week's experience seemed to be more of a hindrance than a help to you!
