Good one Paul - well done! Thanks for the votes - hope you`re managing to keep cool Mattrom ! Cheers Jono - hope you find time to set a Festive Fun Puzzle over the holiday period - in case we get fed up of watching the Sound of Music and Indiana Jones!

Thanks to Jono for organising and to all who cast a vote for me too. It was fun to see my name in lights, as it were

Well done, paul, and thanks, jono. I appreciated the votes from mattrom and tyke. Tyke, I gave you two votes because I like 'fairytale' as an adjective, though there are sources giving it as a noun.

I meant to mention, that I really liked the observation, from both Geting and Paul I think, that the last 7 letters are an anagram of REALITY!

A magical surprise. Indeed Jon -I thought Geting would win this one with "distorted reality" so i'm doubly grateful for all of your votes. Thanks Jon for setting and the prize. Makes you think - the narrator has convinced me to invest in some primroses....

Congrats, Paul! Appreciated the votes from yourself, Geting and Dorrien. Thanks for the challenge and the clip, Jono.
Tyke, I've opted for ceiling fans for cooling, rather than A/C. I'm not sure that my one-woman effort is going to save the planet, though. 🌏
