Sorry, not for me today either I'm afraid. I thought 2. was a plum but by the time I got to 5. quite frankly I didn't give a damn. So I decided 1. was probably yesterdays bonus answer and he must have been as confused as me because the last time I saw him he was in the library with his revolver. So I give up.
