Dear Glenda, Congratulations you are home first with the correct word ahead of all on both web lists answering What I am. The answers to the first 3 lines are ingenious and put you on the right track but not right it being in itself a seperate puzzle!? If you give it further thought and unite them with an aspect relating to your correct answer perhaps then you will see as it was intended it gives different answers to all the others! Every line has its own answer. You just need now the remaining 3 Also tho your 9th letter is correct once again for another reason, perhaps if you 'read' the clue very slowly & try to see what you could hear, you will get it!!:-)) I liked very much your additional speculative insight into the 9th letter giving the additional possibility of an answer of three letters. However as you have so quickly discerned and correctly deduced all have only one. Brilliant, a wonderful bit of deduction. With very best wishes. Regards, Mikey. Spectemur Agendo.
