Oh, thank you so much. That fits better, and I was trying to fit that 27A in, it looked tantalizingly close but wouldn't fit! It all makes sense now. 👍

Oh, very good. I was really puzzling over those. I had the word for 24D but couldn't make the parsing fit. I see it now. I think we're done? Thanks for that hlvp. I enjoyed that. Goodnight.
