Rows?

Rows? Is it a down clue? Homophone if read ‘up’

rows sounds like rose (stood up)

Please DO NOT post any further queries in this thread, use the earlier ST 4923 thread. Thank you.

Thanks everyone.I find Robert Price 90% very easy and a few almost impossible.

Norah.It is often difficult to avoid duplicated threads given that some of the headers are often sloppy. For example, this weekend we had the Sunday Times Cryptic 4923 titled ST 4923, and the Inquisitor 1667 was abbreviated to IQ 1667 - why IQ one wonders?

I agree with kenhiggs. It seems to me that there are now too many 'rules' appearing. This forum used to be easy-going, quirky and forum members could post queries without having to scroll through dozens of threads to check if the crossword they were doing was already shown somewhere on the forum (not always on the front page) and friendly chat is now discouraged, apart from one thread which has not seen any postings since the end of August. I now find other forums more easy-going

Hear, hear! And a thread with 0 replies stands out for those looking to provide help; although new questions added to old threads result in the thread being promoted, where the question is a relatively tricky one the thread can rapidly get buried again (not just by new threads but by other promoted ones).

A discussion of a puzzle as a whole is a different matter, and it makes perfect sense that there should be a single thread per puzzle for that specific purpose.

A few years ago there were complaints about long threads and the guilty ones were asked to break them up into shorter ones!
