Or given letter count, placed letters!

[Baldric]

the clue reads;

Short, pithy saying, also a legendary hoarder of treasure. (5)

GNOME

[sandyRoe]

could it be that he's gnomic?

[MarkRae]

Nor does he seem able to grasp the notion of a Crosswords sub-section underneath Quizzes & Puzzles...

[Sipowicz]

Short pithy saying. Eff off? ;-)

[factor-fiction]

Dave always gets his answers so why should he change?

[Baldric]

^^bangs head on wall, not quite the point I was making!

[factor-fiction]

Is that for me, Baldric? Sorry- you'll have to spell it out if I've missed your point.

[Baldric]

Your follow up to my original answer!

[factor-fiction]

I wasn't questioning your GNOME- I thought that was probably the answer as I remembered an earlier thread which contained the fuller clue. Your post wasn't there when I typed mine. I added another suggestion as I was tryng to make the point to the OP that we needed details of letters
Does that cover your point?

There's a lady in distress on B&S you may want to help

[Ellipsis]

Reminds me of "What have the Romans ever done for us?"

Apart from not giving the publication, the complete clue, the number of letters, or any placed letters; and posting in the wrong section; and never acknowledging a single reply ... apart from that ... Dave is alright!

There's still time for Dave to change. There's one poster who has posted over 570 crossword questions without acknowledging them. If they always get answers why should they heed our guidance on how to post.

That must be a huge ledger you've got, Factor 30?
