Still all 220.
I give you an enormous clue and still nobody gets it - it's Mary Poppins all over again. If you don't get this soon I'm going to make a racket and shuttle off to another site.

Errmmm, it wasn't actually Badminton Horse Trials that I did, it was badminton (remember the possible confusion thing that prompted you to go for gym(khana)), hence the racket (spelling for Americans) and shuttle and the reference to Friday Night by the Darkness which mentions badminton, admittedly on a Tuesday, and... oh never mind. I always give you loads of clues and nobody bothers to look them up.AHB wrote:The three day clue now has me baffled. How can ARK fit a three day occupation into a Monday evening?

Too easy! I thought of the question as I crossed it, without knowing I had been "in the chair" for two weeks. Over to you.
