My friend, Dianne is flying to France tomorrow. If you happen to see her, tell her I said "Hello!!" Hope you are having a great trip and return home safely.

Even with these blatant spoilers I'm still completely at sea!!! When the spoilers are too cryptic, I must need another coffee...
(This is clearly punishment for my current MOAT (viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1179) which I am quite surprised to say no one has solved yet.)
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
