Well, what an interesting round - the real definition was a major reef forming bivalve which became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period - ie #2 - 3 people voted for it thus giving me a D3
Benj Evans long offering takes the honours with a 7*and so he is
the next dealer (anyone will offer to help if you need to ask).
Debbie E is the actual winner with a natural 5
I hope I have scored this correctly - by hand as my other mc is currently down and it has my software - all errors are mine but I hope that there aren't any
Over to you Benj,
JohnnyB

an early 19th century Northumbrian circle of Romantic thinkers who
most notably vilified formal education, particularly grammar
schools, espousing rather the ideal of the innately good child in
the vein of Rousseau and Wm. Blake, among others. The Rudists took
great inspiration from Wordsworth’s poem, “The Tables Turned”,
published in his influential 1798 Lyrical Ballads in which he
writes, “let nature be your teacher”. Among their number were
average-adjuster and poet Edward Irving Todd (1790?-1861),
notorious for his 1825 poem "Lady Grammar, Damn Her!", George
Thomas Rudd (1795-1847), clergyman and founder of the Royal
Entomological Society, and Durham wool merchant Paul Hood
(1786-1846). Not to be confused with the Roodists, 18th century
Calvinist ministers who favored a simple crucifix over the
complete abstention from church adornment practiced by their
peers

ATT? I have been a tad ill with bronchial stuff, but I was quite sure I sent a bad def in. My wife want me to give up "silly word games" and I have no idea if she deletes stuff, but I fear that I will have to ask folks to post strictly to my gmail address. Meanwhile I am coughing enough to wake a politician.Dave
