I agree.

I've always seen Paul as Araucaria's heir apparent but this was disappointing especially for a holiday weekend puzzle.

Me too. I used to really struggle with him (well, obviously still do, sometimes!), but I love his elliptic thinking a lot of the time.

K was Joe Montana or Steve Young the quaterback?

A lot of us men don’t know much about American Football, either, AJT – but I found your Google tip useful. Thank you.
I did not understand my answer for number 9: “Setter almost back on the Guardian’s scent.” I ended up with “Odour”?

Hi Kemio - setter = dog ; almost do. Guardian is "our" possessive pronoun for Paul

OD (almost dog-setter back<) +our (Guardian)

I've just got 19d left "Red newt filling roll (7)", so far I've got ?E?T?S?

Any hints or further clues would be much appreciated...

Thanks.

thank you, AJT and K - I feel as though I ought to echo the Meerkat who is now a TV star, "Simples!" (when someone show you how)

Hi SimonG - you're nearly there. What you need is "red". A newt is an eft.

SimonG ..... think of roll as list ! ;o)
