Thanks for that, however, are you sure about Q39?

C in a A doesn't make 'Counties in America' and they are 'States' not 'Counties'. The question may be a typo error, as I would have thought it should have been 'C in an A' !

No sleep for you yet!!! :lol:

No worries Skiff... A for this one for all! Mate just mailed me back and said "Smart ar*e. How did you get all them?"
My reply: "Many hands make light work... I asked a few friends and the credit all goes to them". I must admit I was tempted to just say yes I am but I couldn't take the credit for your work!

Think i need to find a nurse :lol: My PEP pills are wearing off :crazyeyes:
