Hi all.
Many thanks for your kind and thoughtful condolences.
I'm struggling a bit this time.I think I may be asking for help soon,although I see I have until Hogmanay to get it in.

So far have not received my RT for the week beginning 18th Dec or Christmas issue

Well, Crypto, maybe that was a nice example of a Mal-type-ment which promoted one or two bits of interest a week or so ago! Or maybe it was a Freudian slip and you are really a Class Act. But Charlie and I have been debating where we would put a 1000inch TV if we won it and also where to put apostrophes. We came to a conclusion about one, but not the other.

my first go at this, can anyone advise if im in right direction.
17a
-E----I-R
wise man - role im playing outside church
hope got the letters correct.

Welcome to the thread emf, yes you are on the right lines! Use the letters from "role I'm" and insert 2 letters that mean church in a shortened form.
Hope this helps1

thanks
Melchior now get it. got couple more then done.

before reversing, delia street cut out.
-T---E-

emf, we shall have to try and stop meeting like this!! 45A ; the word reversed means that, so reverse "DELLA" and put an abbreviation for Street in front of it. By the way, we try not to give direct answers on this thread-even in the excitement of things becoming clearer. Hope this helps to push you along.

looks like delia in my RT.
sorry

thanks for the help, now finished, though confessed took some time to get 38d
