Peter,
no mad rush...this is just yet ANOTHER puzzle I'm working on. The
main one is trying to prove or disprove the family rumour that the person
my Mum thought of as her father, (who she later found out was her adoptive
father) was really her grandfather. Too many people know the rumour and it
hasn't changed in 40 years that I've found out so I think there's
definitely some truth in it...but not easy to find the truth.
Needless to say, this other puzzle isn't as 'important' to me but
would be great to find out if I could.
Thanks for the offer.
Jackie
