Excellent, dr john. And my apllogies to crofter - I thought he was fooling about. As though!

That's Okay Aquagility - no offence taken!
Looking up "dog-letter" in Chambers would have settled it!

The setter of the Matlock Quiz is fond if her "dog" letter!

Thanks one and all !!!
I am enjoying the quiz, candled, but am finding it pretty mind boggling as I am not of a geographical mind !!! I think I have found an answer only to find it appears to be miles, no , hundreds of miles or even thousands of miles off course !! I will struggle on for a bit longer but will be begging for help soon !!!!!
