Hi Samantha

Your answer for 9d = gravy

36a = boyne

Your other words are ok.

Hope this helps. Good Luck

My entry for Colossus went in today, but from memory I have the same as Dutchy. Good luck. I scored $50 from Colossus 109! Would love to win something for Stinker or Cryptic. Gotta keep trying!

Hi Dutchy

Spent most of it on a 2 year Mega subscription. My eyesight is not what it used to be; need the larger print these days. Not that I plan to give up Colossus and the like just yet.

Hi Lynne

Did you know Lovatts puts out a large print puzzle book too? From memory its called "easy to read".

Yes I know about that one. I did try a copy a couple of years ago when it first came out, just out of curiosity. From memory it was ok - I didn't have the eyesight problem at the time. That's recent. I do like the difficult puzzles though and I don't think the Stinker is included in that magazine; feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. It's not too bad so long as I have a bright light...

Lynne go and see a good optician and get a pair of decent reading glasses, I've done that, and it make things a lot easier for you.

I do wear glasses and get them updated regularly. It's a bit more complicated than that unfortunately. I agree though, I'd be lost without them.

I knew i could rely on the team here for help!

I always check my answers on here to make sure, expecially the cryptics - i only learnt how to do them in the last year or two..

Smile thanks again and goodluck to all
