How to Get the h Block on Level 8 in Vim Adventure?

I have been stuck at the following stage on level 8. Could anyone tell me how to get to the h block? I know I could get to the rest of blocks by the * key after it.

I'm not sure where your cursor is, so I'll start from the upper left corner, on the H in the "Here's an easy" line. (Pressing gg from anywhere in the puzzle will take you there.)

• $ to go to the end of line 1.

• ** to go to the e in "That's not easy," near the bottom.

• j to go down to the r in sir, in the last line.

• ## to go to the s in sir, in the "whose new socks, sir?" line, which I believe is the one where you're stuck. (screenshot)

• Now, use Fh to backwards-find the h in whose. (screenshot)

• The rest is probably obvious to you. * or # to get to the w in whose in the "Who sews whose socks?" line, which will release a blue key. gg$* to grab the key. *j*;*ekl etc. to get to the building and use the blue key.

I think that should explain everything pretty well. Happy Vim Adventuring!
