Oh my! I am a little shocked but I failed to notice that about the grid! Thanks for pointing it out. It’s a little conceit that I rather like.

Another airing for that signature FT grid device (F’s along the top row, T’s along the bottom). Second time in the last month, if I recall correctly.

I agree with your plaudit for 20D; an opportunity well-seized.

Hi Pete
Re 3d – film critic is right – covering = film (as in layer) with it surrounded by half of Crichton!
When it comes to pies, as a Midlander I’ve heard (and used) “easy” and “nice”, but never “sweet”!
