Remarkably clear and precise parsing, team JJ109 and NACW! Many thanks and I am hoping tomorrow's Spectator will be much smoother for me. As far as the Genius is concerned, I'll have a look but I suspect it will be beyond my capabilities!

Thanks, Matakari. I'm sure you'll recover from this EV fairly quickly - your 'lesson' has been spread over several days. The Genius is definitely worth a try, I found it good fun.
