Terry - our exchange has got my grey cells going I don't think that is the answer - replace the 'A' with an 'L'.

Crypto,

I do believe you are right. Makes sense of the second half of the clue. Well done,Crypto.

Cheers Terry - one up to Les40 methinks.

Crypto,

Probably best not to use words like up with Les40, I think he's got a bit of a fixation there.

Terry - ok perhaps he got one over us then!

Thanks Les40 for the crossword - am going to have a go at it but don't know whether I will get very far as I often have a mental block when it comes to cryptic clues- but worth a try.

WoW. Thanks for the feedback. I just got back on line and was really chuffed with the response. Thanks everyone. Now I have the Dropbox feature, I will put another in tomorrow. Thing is, I will have to change the names of my files, because I named them after one of the clues in each grid, so I would recognise them, and it becomes part of the link address, as you may have noticed with the Red Indian link. My message to Mark and a few who are unsure about 11a) The first part of the clue is two words of 4 letters meaning reduce speed, the second part of the clue becomes the 8 letter answer, Think about if you avoided threading a suspendary item on your lower attire, then you would become this.

is it knob races? - sounds like no braces?
