Note the placement of the indicator "looks different". It is next to "things", not "times". This means that "things" needs to be anagrammed, and "times" must be the definition.<BR/><BR/>Can you see the answer now?Shuchihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01255928672885834649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6025878547150944281.post-67110042633883651112009-02-20T00:10:00.000+05:302009-02-20T00:10:00.000+05:30Thank you for your wonderful blog.
