Hi Karen,

The thought has occurred to me that the DVD may well form part of your prize as it's usual for the Radio Times give away a particular DVD with the main prize. In all probablity, your Toshiba DVD recorder [if that was the main prize] will arrive from a different source so keep your fingers crossed and so will I!

With kind regards,

Hi,
Just finished although i needed a little help this week. 15a: I wouldn't have got the dagger marks without working back from the flower. There are parts that seem to fit but i don't know why. Eg 14d and 24a. It isn't as satisfying if you have to "cheat" and i'm not always impressed by the prize so its the challenge that is the important bit. Maybe I should allow a few days before using the forum...

Hi Caravaggio, thats what I thought. You'd think they could at least pop a comp slip in,Everyman did

I got more clues answered this week and more quickly than usual but am totally stuck on 14D and 15A. And can only think of Orvieto as the Italian town but do not see the connection to the clue.

I agree with the answer Plaid.

Well done to Karen in her winnings. It is good to know that a real person does win!!

Hi everyone,
Only have six left to do. Many babies suck a
dummy which some shops call comforters.
Keep smiling.

Thanks flipper2law. I should have got that one!!

a little help for Mondrian for 3d ....wear=fray

Hi All - thanks for the subtle help on this one - although I got the answers just couldn't see the relevance....and could kick myself - got 15a almost immediately, but couldn't work out the middle bit....
So, finally done and dusted - not an easy one...
Hey, Karen, does that mean you also won an Everyman prize, too?????? WOW

Karen - glad to hear your prize (or part of it) arrived. Could you please help me on 24a - i was lower than bottom at geography and stand no chance of getting this clue. Am still pottering on with about 8 to go but will persevere with the others. Thanks in advance for additional clue.....

Hi Old Gal,

I'm surprised that you've not received a reply yet so I'll rush to your rescue.

The key word here is deposit - and in this case it's a green coating which appears on copper and brass...

Kind regards,

Caravaggio
