    Yes, well I cannot say I can quite do that ....... Anyway, Flay gets the B so well done to him

                    Oh Ams, you are so sweet. I shall take that thought and wrap it around me ......... I have never been called a houri before! Won't be around until a lot later, have fun solving Flay's and subsequents.

                            'Twas a finely wrought question, have no doubt.

                            What C links these:
                            - a hunter's theme;
                            - what transpires before things become gross;
                            - a number from an opera which shares its name with a Russian car?
