2d move the second letter up

Cheers, all parsed now I think then (maybe not 1D but it's clearly correct).

Spoiler alert:
I have broken 1d into this:
Def = 'As expected'
Wordplay: 'Keep' (another meaning) + strange 'echo' + 'you are' heard inside 'what you (i.e solvers) do.
I think...

That works for me, biggus56.

Hi PS

I too have finished now. My FOI was 15d and my LOI was 6d because I couldn't work out the anagram even though Chris E had given it in the thread. Doh!

My COIs were 11ac and 7d. Despite my recent efforts to learn Latin and looking my husband's Latin- English Dictionary, it took me a while to work out the Latin tag, but I did. I've never heard of 16ac as a word, but I remember bars of 10ac when I was a child.

I found this unusually easy for a,Guardian Saturday puzzle. The one that I found most puzzling was 1d, and that only because there was one part of the clue that I found difficult to understand: it was obvious what the solution was. The part which puzzled me was "what you do", and in view of what I eventually decided must be the answer, it's rather ironic how many people in this discussion have said they can't parse the clue.

Irony indeed, Micky!

I'm one for whom 1a didn't work. Bit of a catch 22. Thanks for the help.

Sorry, that's 1d.
