Strewth mate - that took some finding.

Wouldn't have done it without the clues!

I'm limited monitoring from 1030 Prune time, so here's a much easier one.

You have 25 minutes....tick...tick.....

Is this smaller than it looks mate? Less than a ton? I was initially thinking of a Beardmore product.

As it's only 1930A in NSW I'll leave it up.

Back in 45 - 50 minutes.

It is fairly small Graeme, but not American, so Aerofiles is of no use.

I'll drink to that.

Clues help to lubricate the thread innit!

Be gentle Reg - all yours mate.

I'm now regularly seeing an elusive 'phantom' page.

Mee too.

I've noticed it occurs when the last page is full, as if it's pre-empting the next one.

Look what's just ocurred with your post.

How about an elusive challenge in lieu of an elusive phantom page?
