Many thanks to everyone who took part in this year's puzzles, specially
a handful who were thoughtful enough to say what fun they'd had. Commiserations go to
a great number of respondents whose names perforce remained in the
BtP Homburg following the drawing of lots. Further commiserations to a posse of competitors whose responses were
'differently correct' ... all these errors were caused simply by failing to
read the final instruction, which asked for a word from a song, not the name of
the song itself. An overwhelming majority of players had figured out the right
answer, 'watch'; several uses of the word in the instructions, as well as a
picture of a watch on every page, were of course intended to be their
reassurance.
Now send in those 'real world' addresses!
