Thanks lady bee. That just leaves no. 69. Got the veg, I think, but cannot get a word for plain beginning with P?

Ok the penny has dropped. Once more I found the clue in Chambers so that’s no. 69 solved. Many thanks to both lady bee and nonplussed.

haremai, can I suggest you get a copy of Bradford's crossword solver. That might have solved your 'plain' problem. It's available in both paperback and kindle versions.

Thanks nonplussed for your tip re. Bradford’s Crossword Solver. Will see if I can get a copy for the Christmas quiz and hopefully I won’t need an help.

hi. everyone.you are all very clever. and your clues are fantastic, but i'm still thick! going round and round with junior runner. thought i had it with r.....r but i think i must bee wrong. still puzzling 18. re hat. also no 22,19,34,43,46,55,59. i know there have been lots of clues so far, but still bothered.

You're puzzling 18 and yet the answer's been given!!

sorry. didnt mean tto sound such a dope, but cant always think as quick as some of you. have done quite a few more now, but still stuck on a few, probably the clues have already been given so apologies. still stuck on 46;47,52,and 59. i have a word for 59 beg, and ending in r.any good?

Have done most of the ones mentioned in this thread but am stuck on
43-man on board hops away to get old lumber
44-but can Bob sort out the hold?
94- Newcomer in the mining camp has a blister?

I am new to this Quiz and would welcome hints!

43. Board doesn't refer to ship but a game and 'away' suggests anagram of one of the words.

44. Anagram involved.

94. Google synonyms for 'newcomer'

46. Old name for soldier & a gun (1st WW) + last 3 letters for go off (food).
47. Ist 3 letters of 1st word + 1st letter 2nd word + a type of exam and look up in dictionary. Hard to give a "clue" to this question.
52. Song about a milkman - forget James.
59. Ist 3 letters normal word for chap. Last 4 a passenger carrying vehicle only seen in certain high populated areas. Look up dictionary unusual word.
