Hi speedycat
111d = XERIC
110a = EXTREME
39d = BERBER
104d = SKEP
120d = NISUS
74d = SCARIFYING

Hi speedycat and lmur.

The reference for 120d = http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=nisus&r=66

Good luck

Thanks Dutchy and apologies, speedycat.

I meant to write NISUS but transposed my vowels (an embarrassing ailment!).
