Ground to a halt -these might help.
9d Learn our new task without a programme?
They might. ?e???? ?????r?s
16d Drips are almost entirely unsuccessful when playing bridge. ???????s

Please parse these for me.
25a Am I not initially mistaken to go around using phone abroad. Answer Roaming . (Am I n inside rog -but where does rog come from?)
26a Toppings of sand and cement on concrete insulated floors. Must be screed (first letters of sand and cement , re =on but where does the ed come from?)

9d NEURAL NETWORKS. Anagram minus the A. Programme is the anagrind
16d TRICKLES(S)

I think 25a is AMI in (W)RONG, where the latter is not initially mistaken

I think 26 must be S C (first letters) RE (on) E D (last letters -floors- from concrete and insulated). Clue as definition.

Thanks both . Would never have got them

Loubyloo, this thread is numbered 17,274. Should the previous thread be numbered 17,273 rather than 17,723?

Hi Nora, just in case Loubylou doesn’t see your post, you are correct, the other thread should be 17,273

Thanks Jono
