'Much better if you let us know the source of this problem. Is this an exercise from some book / online course?”

The source is just me exploring. 
I first looked at 

data C a = C a deriving (Show)

and made Monad, Applicative, Monoid and Functors for it.

So then tried 
Pair a = P (a, a)  
and stuck on Monad.

Thanks	

Mike
