@joevinwild,
I would guess the answer is "wow".

To "wow" someone is to make an impression, and outside of the word window = w & w (the first and last letter). I am sure someone else will give their opinions too, so good luck.

@Dutchy,
Hi Dutchy,

To answer your question, it comes from the Colossus 203 - current uk edition. Do you know if these end up being printed in Oz?

@lmur,
Hi Lmur

I believe they do sometimes. Have answered queries from the UK before where I had the completed puzzle in my possession. This particular question I couldn't recall so we may still get that puzzle.

How is it going by the way? Our latest Colossus and Big magazines were really toughies.

Cheers
Dutchy.

@Dutchy,
Closing date for the 203 Colossus is next Thursday. I've completed 2 of the 4 prize puzzles, have almost finished the Baffler and will probably skip the Stinker on this occasion. After that, there's two more magazines which remain in their wrappers! How do you folks find the time?

@lmur,
Hi lmur.
Good to see you get stuck into them. Time is no problem when you're retired, I'd go out of my mind if I didn't have the puzzles to keep me occupied.
