On shore (as of yesterday too). I asked that my first early and asterisked post be deleted so one more muggle made page 1. So now there is a double thirst building.

Done and done! Would have posted sooner, but my internet had a sudden crash... please, cabana boy, bring me a something cold and soothing (preferably with tequila and triple sec). :)

They say that repeating yourself is a sign of age, but here goes: "Never heard of this one either."

Ashore. Pass my G&T to Mr G.
For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

Wow! Hoped for page one or two, but obviously, this must be an easy one!

With one brief rabbit hole - on shore. Quite a relief after the struggles I have had with the last few puzzles. Beach chair here I come!

Ashore!

Got a late start because I was napping.
