    Thank you! so it's a choice of RILE.

    Let's see if your suggestions will 'rile' Mansey or if she will agree that I can use one of those letters. Hopefully as the newt is temporarily absent, she will allow one of them :rotfl:

    I randomly received 2 identical copies of a Mallory Towers book, so I donated them to the fete at my kids school - does that count as a charity donation?
