Let's try 3 and 5, please.
After this round my participation may be a bit erratic for a while, as we'll be on holiday in various places in Alaska.
Best wishes,
Tim Bourne

    it doesn't smell Scottish to me, and there are a bunch of Asian defs to choose from. Even it it is Asian, I'll probably guess wrong with the "convenience store" vote: 7-11.
