Thanks, Cerasus. I assume that Q is now in the NE.

Thanks, Chrise. Ah well, I have plausible definitions in all of them now so I’ll let it rest!

This is a long thread so apologies if the answer is buried somewhere above.
I've finished - but i can't be sure I've correctly solve3d 24 across: "Strengthening supports from trees are suggested". I have F?RS and there is a n obvious tree but, if so. can someone help with the parsing?
Many thanks and best wishes to all

Apparently the U spelling (the answer, I think) is a tradesmen's name for strengthening for roof joists (roof should have got it!). I've never heard of it either.

The Guardian, living up to it’s reputation, has printed the old address for submission of entries for Maskersde’s puzzle (and an incorrect puzzle number). Can someone remind me of the new/correct address please ?
Cheers and Happy New Year all.

I don't know if this is correct ?
