[Tubbycoates]

Thanks sparkles. The reason I didn't gived any letters is because I haven't got most of them, so they wouldn't help.

[vakayu]

It would still help initially saying how many letters we are looking for.

[Tubbycoates]

Wish I was as good as you lot! Thanks again, especially the reasons why the answers are what they are.

[bookbinder]

Yes, but the ones that you have got would have helped!

[factor-fiction]

Okay, but the number of letters is given and always helps

[factor-fiction]

Sorry- I was a minute or so behind

[Sparkles62]

I agree Factor... just happened to be putting mine in envelope to post as Tubby posted so had it to hand. X

[Tubbycoates]

The length of the answers, yes you're right., but, as I've said, I've either got no letters at all or only 1, so it would be no help.

[Sparkles62]

Any letters at all help Tubby. Lots of the people who answer don't actually have the paper.
And the number of letters required helps immensly....eg. 7 letters...or 3,5 then you know how big the word is. :-)
