ihave heard of geoffrey boycott,jim B,but it did not sink in because of my head injury( it did come to me yesterday,but through the answer searching,i had my thesaurus head on,and old geoffrey was blanked out of my mind.if a future clue came along saying"bird,say",then i'll know to think 'dickie' before sparrow or jay etc or hawk).good to see the old character's still in work though,cheery-o!,krisstoff.
