Hopefully we will find each other? I didn’t notice the old thread filling up.
Happy Christmas to you all and thanks for your company through the year!

Really didn't want PBD, but didn't guess it before reveal. Should have tried harder!

No default today, or 'leftovers' as the Americans call it. When I first started playing this game I always had a default. I thought that was a feature of the game.

A red herring and PBD 😊
