Lots of refs and it and the hook are interesting, new and long enough. Earwig and I found some quotes and noun phrases so all clear there. I have added some pics and I have recently added another which is of Elsie which might be more hooky. If you decide to change it then ping me. I'm quite happy with this article and its from Women in Red's 234th editathon which is an extra tick fro me. Thanks 97198 Victuallers (talk) 13:13, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
