Many thanks for the explanation, I've never read nor seen and of those books/films so I was really mystified by your post! However, no reason it can't be entered if it fits the other criteria, good luck to you..

A problem to solve. Addresses the challenge. More likely that over 50s will see the connection.

Re: December Snapshot Competition

I hope you will take my word for it, but old fashioned water pumps had the bore size in inches cast on the side.

This is a water feature in the grounds of Fruitcake Folly, featuring a 2½ inch water pump.

Yay ! Spot in Amac- I was just about to pull the plug on that as I guess I should not have posted a puzzle in the photo comp.
I just thought it worth a punt.

Bravo Tiff for spotting it so fast. Well done d00d for working out an alternative. Perhaps we should start a new line.
