Did you help with the Playfair coded puzzle in the EV? I only solve Playfair codes the hard way when I really have to (sometimes a setter will construct one that can't be cracked using a Playfair-Breaker app. but 99% of the time they can be... in just a few seconds... like the EV one). Anyway, I'm glad you've got to grips with how to do it the hard way - I'll be calling on you for help with one of the 1% one of these days.
I also noticed you'd helped Matakari with some Listener answers - at least there were no codes involved (this time!}. If you ever look at another Listener it'll give you some idea of the level the clues are pitched at.
