lucertola
After "Welcome, lucertola" at the top there is (edit). This is a link to a page where you can set options like post order.

Lucertola, click on “edit” next to where it says “Welcome, Lucertola!” then scroll to the bottom of that page where there is an option to change to the ordering of posts.

Hi Jono and Cherise. Many thanks. This will make everything much easier.🙂

Sorry. You have been renamed Cherise!

Just 8a and 1d left. Is 1d a character in Dombey and Son? I've looked at a list and can't see any that fit.

1d nothing to do with the book, then!

Chris, the Dickens reference is pure deception. You’ll groan when you see it. 8a is a little odd unless I’m missing something.

Enjoyed this, agree with Geeker on difficulty and parsed them all eventually.
Didn't like the def's for 6, 14, 19, and 2 down was new as an actual word on me. 8 was a bit naughty about BFG but I like it.

Liked 16, 25 and 26.

Chrise "1d nothing to do with the book, then!"
Think it's an example of novel structure.

thanks jono - i had just seen it. joint favourite with 14a
i haven't parsed 8a, or (no-one has mentioned) 6d - how does "something warm" fit in?
