Easier than it looked, no default. Going to go back and see if I can spot the red herring.

Funny how different we are as I found today’s fairly straightforward once I’d worked my way round the red herring. And I’m taking blue as a win as I was trying for a more detailed connection that one didn’t fit, but on reveal the connection was a lot looser.
