I'm fairly new to cryptic xwords and to this forum.
Is there any way to search the threads in this forum as this xword is old.

Or does anyone know of another forum for Australian newspapers?

Anyway, can anyone explain why "Bookmaker left sequin fish?" = ANGLE

I can't stand not understanding

Hi Wongapigeon, welcome to the forum.

"Bookmaker left sequin fish?
sequin = SPANGLE, remove SP (bookmaker), leaving ANGLE, fish as a verb.
As you can see, putting SMH in the search box doesn't return many hits. I don't know of any forums for Au crosswords specifically. I use this one and Answerbank (I'm in Sydney)

...and no, you can only search for thread titles, not contents.

Oh gee. Should have got that one. Thanks a lot.
It's not enough for me to get the obvious word. I've got to understand it. 👍
