[Wolfram9]

Many thanks JimF, could you please parse :)

[mat-a-dor]

Yada-Yada means Blah Blah Blah. Read backwards it is A Day A Day which is 48 hours

[Wolfram9]

Many thanks Mat-a-dor. Any ideas for 'MOON'? :)

[mat-a-dor]

I’m not sure about moon. I thought of goon but that is a term for a low ranking officer. No idea what that has to do with “perhaps”.

[Wolfram9]

Cheers Mat-a-dor, "perhaps" someone can parse for us. Tricky clue :)

I think 14a is JOHN, John Sergeant, John Major

[Buenchico]

^^^ Looks good to me, Iminoz!

Well done!

[Wolfram9]

OK, I'm done"JOHN" it is - many thanks. Don't get the clue, so am getting a drink, cheers :)

[iminoz]

I'll raise a glass to that, Wolfram...and thanks, Buenchico.
