Hi Mattrom

Congratulations on winning PR yet again!
If you look back at the thread we were discussing the parsing for your @18 clue and I'd appreciate your comments.

BTW I'd given up on the precious stones idea long before I saw your post!

Hi Rossim,
I didn't mention this earlier as Chrise was spot on with his parsing of #18 - thanks, Chrise.

Primary sources of rubies, emeralds and diamonds

Definition = Primary = RED, but of course could be blue or yellow.
'sources' is the acronym indicator. (Plural, as it refers to the origin of more than one word)

Thanks for replying Mattrom.
Being pedantic, I could question whether primary is an exact synonym of red!
However, you write amazing clues and I look forward to your word choice next week.
At least you won't be able to win!
