Listener 4162 Carte Blanche with a Twist by Mash

Judging from the dearth of postings, others are also finding this less than a walkover - pretty much as foretold. I'm still working on paragraph one of the preamble and an odd assortment of answers....

I don't get it! (the joke that is) I am glad it was easy this week compared to last week, but I am not impressed. The title, the rejoinder, the connection between the quotation? I suppose none of it...

Listener 4150 - Garden Scraps by Colleague
