It's fine, but took me a little longer than a usual Monday at 6:23. WHYYOULITTLE is excellent. Sue and I use the hotel safes all of the time. I don't like walking around with much cash, and don't like leaving other valuables, like jewelry or my laptop, out when we're away. Why wouldn't people use the hotel safe?

I do think it's harder than it seems to come up with words/phrases that fit the theme, so kudos to the setter for that. 3:20, so no sub-3 for moi today.<br /><br />Frannie, it pleases me that you are re-reading the HP series.
