mormegil · 11-28-2005, 06:10 PM

Yes! Very well done. I thought the Don't and Never (being a double negative) would help on this one. Is that what did it?

Kath · 11-29-2005, 04:49 PM

To be honest no, but probably because I did it backwards! I started with 'end' then got to 'never' etc. The double negative got me the person who said it though so thanks for that and for my reward!
