Thanks Neveracrossword and Lie-in King.

Glad we could help, Hankir. I didn't give 1 D as I'd stuck it in without parsing. I'm glad Lie-in King came along!

PS L-iK's bracket letter and my bracket aren't the same - only mine refers to an extra letter. You probably realised that yourself, I'm just being cautious!

Thanks Neveracrossword.

I did not see your message until today because I had solved the puzzle and thanked both of you for your help.

There was no need to check.

But thanks again.

Thanks, Hankir. I'll know not to be quite so cautious next time!
