Quite extraordinary! I've been completely unable to get 88 for well over a month now, but as soon as I posted my question the answer suddenly hit me.

Could anyone please drop me a hint for No. 31 "Take a stroll beyond the enclosure in a London Street" (8 4). This is my last one - it doesn't seem to have been a problem for anyone else but I just cannot get it !!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks.

Second part is a word fora stroll, first part is where polly may be kept.

up to now have only asked glad to help.

Think what sport is played at 50! Players try to pot the balls in what!

Mags - what are your thoughts for 99?

Lizzie.
Number 50.
Anagram of last 3 words = name of an author.
Then look up a list of his plays/books.

Perhaps the answer to number 99 is in the first 3 words of the clue...
"Hold on to" as in k**p...?

June. No - I don't think that keepnet is the answer. In Chambers (the font of all wisdom for this puzzle), a keepnet is suspended IN the water, not OVER it. With this puzzle, every word is significant. Or did you have a different word in mind?

Thanks Gloria for help with No. 31 - thinking deeply!!

Badger4. Sorry but I only have Keepnet - but not confident.

Badger4.
A keep net is partly out of the water or the fish would escape if it was all IN the water.
The clue is ambiguous I admit.
I also think that ' k*****t better fits the theme of the clue.
Don't let me influence you if you think otherwise. Go for it and good luck with the quiz.
