Thank you @TallTrees 

A good guess might indeed "turn up trumps" and you`ll get a Silver Thinker again - two on the "bounce" 

Look forward to pm with your answers later.

Good luck.

Also made a mental note about scraping the last of the baked beans out of the pot at dinner, so yummy, but, well... 😁
