GB, don't use five characters when you can use one! :-D *Thinks* if d'E stays in the hole there will be more chances in the quiz for the rest of us...

That makes 3 simposts in one day, Ottoxxxx.
*sound of the Twilight Zone music*
In future I *will* post just the one character!!!...maybe Greebo will take pity on my & give us a half-point each?
If we are correct, I mean?
We may be wrong, knowing Greebo...

Hmmmm... a half point each? Usually it's one point for the first (ME!!!) and then - maybe - a half point for the second...
If we are correct...

Oh, come on guys and gals, haven't you got anything else to do than hang around at h2g2?
*sulking, having missed the question by one hour, but relieved to see that d'Elaphant has been rescued*
Well done, GB!

You can't have half a hole.
You might try erecting some kind of partition but then you'd have two holes!
