I just noticed this - Saucepan's answer to #2 on the previous page (Rohan’s old one got confused, and became an enigma by another name):
Quote:
Taking the "R" from Rohan and "a" (ie one) and mixing them with "old" gives Orald, another name for that well-known enigma, Tom Bombadil.
Actually, the answer was much simpler: I was thinking of Aldor (the Old) of Rohan, an anagram of Orald.

The Saucepan Man took a roundabout route but still got the answer.
