Could I have a hint for 8D and 19A? I have respectively B.N.S/.S.. and .E.. Am I looking for a British problem and Pacific region?

Hi Cymro,

8d - 4 letter "responsibility" goes inside/"probes" 1 letter "British" and 5 letter "problem" - definition is "shares" (as in a type of stocks and ...)

19a - 2 letter "school training" + 2 letter "game" - definition is "in Pacific region"

Hi Brendan,
Thanks for that, the mist now clears! These days I’m always left with one or two. Must be brain fog. That’s enough of the weather metaphors!

Hi Snowwhite,

19a - when you were at school what 2 letters did you know gym class by? add them to a 2 letter abbreviation/acronym for another sport played and you have a country "in (the) Pacific region"
