I see Nelson and Malone have started a discussion of this elsewhere. I’m finding this difficult so no doubt will be back shortly.

Bunty, Nelson and I exchanged a couple of posts on an earlier Inquisitor thread. Jogamel must have been looking at that.

The answer to clue has to be entered with one letter dropped wherever it occurs. The definition refers to the whole word. The wordplay and letter-count to mutilated grid entry.

21. Like Bill's camel, in books called 'bristly' (10)

Thanks.

Hi sunray, the wordplay missing 1 letter is a synonym of called in an abbreviation of books + a synonym of bristly.

Yes indeed. I was wondering why 1554 was still being commented on. Just interested.

Hi again sunray, I hope you don't think I was implying your "T" is wrong, I was hoping to help you see the wordplay.
