Thanks, ftsalmon - but I wouldn't go that far! It's always easier to help - and help quickly - if the crossword's already been done.

A lot of head scratching this week. Can someone parse 39a for me, please. Eleven motorists cross about origin of journey (4) AJAX.

Motorists = AA
Cross = X
Origins of journey = J

Where is eleven and why Ajax?

Thanks
