Here's a little puzzle for you to decipher. A crossword clue for a 3 letter word, so not difficult. However, I took a while to parse and decipher the steps to logically come to the answer. Commander another time not in. I even had A_A and still didn't see it for a while! Can you see how the clue is actually valid once you break it down? It has been so long since i did a proper crossword that my brain isn't trained to read the clues properly. I think I might have it but I'm only half convinced of my reasoning. I think the answer is part of the title of a foreign commander. And that you get that from coming up with a single word that could mean 'another time' but you have take out some letters to comply with the 'not in' bit. Leaving you with a hefty cooker. But I'm not even sure if the hefty cooker actually IS part of the name of a commander. Leader, yes. Commander? I'm guessing! |

I guess it could easily have been, but no it's a bit of ground pepper - there's really nothing showing to help identify it.  |

Somewhere in my 30,000 pics I'm sure that I have a whole Monkey Puzzle Tree but I can't find the picture or remember where it was. Annoyingly there is at least one at the place we were at today but it didn't occur to me to go to that part of the garden. A piece of (Monkey) Puzzle  DSCF1556.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |
