    Syn and adam, we may be stuck on X for gemstones, should we just go ahead to W and Y Z; they are easy ones.

    Ha ! I am wearing one right now ! And I never thought because opals are opals but this one is more expensive because the colours are hardly visible. Good for you !

    Yep, White Opal is nice. Bought my wife, years ago, a bracelet that's got some White Opal in it. Very pretty indeed.

    I can't be sure, but I'm thinking that there are no gemstones that start with X.

    That's what I said. So we have to move on to Y and Z and I can finish that off if you like, so someone can pick another category. RickJ, this is such a wonderful pastime for all of us. It sure gets the thinking caps in hyperdrive.

    You pick the category next, okay.
