Hello everyone!
I'm stuck on a few of the cryptic clues...
I have answers for them all but I just don't know the reasoning behind the clues!!!
36A - Castles in the air? ROOMS?
40A - Company badge displays a fallen tree & a duck? I have LOGO (LOG-fallen tree but how is the duck involved)?
63D - Three times the volume ? TRILOGY
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Very Happy

Hi Catgirl

36a = rooks (castles from a chess game)

40a = logo (log and 0 for duck, heard of a duck in cricket?)

63a = triology (is a set of books consisting out of three volumes)

Someone else may have other interpretations, but above will do me. Smile

Hi catgirl
My answers are the same as Dutchy's. Good luck with your entry :wink:

Hi Catgirl

A typo crept in my last submission, it is of course 'trilogy'.

Thanks Dutchy and Tuesday.
I would never have associated a duck with cricket, nor would I have thought of rooks. When it comes to these cryptics I've got to remember to think outside the box! Thanks for your help.
Very Happy
