Yes, that's what the "dots," in my comment were supposed to represent...

Hi Ennio - well 333, mostly, but there were one or two single 3s in there.

Hi Durbs - Many thanks, many thanks, many thanks. Or should I say,
Shanti, shanti, shanti?

Tony, Tony, Tony
Excellent, excellent, excellent.  It's nice to know I'm not the only one who plays around with numbers on occasion.  And I don't consider the explanations "nerdish."  Most of it could be picked up out of context, but it was nice to have contextual assumptions confirmed and expanded upon.  If that makes us both nerds, so be it, so be it, so be it.

Excellent, well-written, and annotated to boot. Sometimes, it isn't a
bad thing to throw in an explanation or two.  Nicely done...

Thanks Troosha. In particular, i wasn't sure about the bingo line.
Do people know what it is?

Antonio-yo-yo - Three cheers for the Sonnet Man! BRAVA. Tony, this
is very, well done!  I think it's one of your best.  Thank you for the explanation because I did not know about the 999 reference or the Bingo one.  Again, very well done!

Although I appreciated your explanation - I actually "got it" without.  Very clever.  I was expecting 3 coins in a fountain somewhere along the way.
