Thanks tatters and malone ; )

Cs75, your question from the answer thread.

Note by Admin - Ploughty, I note what you say in the Answers thread "I have to say it seems counterintuitive to move off the answer thread in order to give an answer."

You are not supposed to give answers to the theme anywhere. I have been told that your reply here gave too much away,

Please read the preamble "Help with the theme may also feature here. This doesn't mean detailing exactly what's to be done, just more generous hints and nudges than can be found on the Gentle Hints Thread."

I like what Norah has done with the 3 threads. I deliberately didn't give precise info. So this seems to be a judgement call. Hard to know what is too much of a hint for some users. That's why theme hints would be better on the answer thread. I'm only trying to help, and poor cs75 still doesn't have a reply

Finally got there. The amount of time I spent googling the wrong BP (Boris Pasternak)!
