Drxx, my copy is very tatty - but it looks like I have a T at the very start of the single letters list? PS I didn't have them all initially, I saw what was going to emerge.

Thanks so much Malone and drxx. Very kind of you both.

Is 6d Steg? Can't find that in my (old) Chambers.

Jazzlover, the preamble says 6 D is in SOED. I don't have that, but put Steg in anyway!

...but I can't see where you're getting the 2nd letter (N) from. Can you list the clue numbers you are using?

malone - I think we're looking for the normal clues (initial letters of) not the dropped letters.

Drxx, you're right - I was losing track of all the different strands to this! Being unable to decipher some of my scribbles didn't help.

Jazzlover, apologies if I've been giving you duff information!
