Colossus No. 116 Cryptic

Hi catgirl!

Will have a think about these, but for starters -

50a - Right side damaged in car trips R???S
right = R + side (damaged = anagram) in car trips - RIDES

34d - patient expired - INVALID (two meanings)

Hi catgirl,

Answers I have for these are,
17a. leers
33a. briar
50a. rides
34d. invalid

Hope these assist you. Good luck with your entry.

Thanks canoe!
I didn't get my Colossus until this afternoon and went straight to the Cryptic, coming up with the same answers as you.

catgirl, we love to help when we can, but it would aid us enormously if you would give the correct number of letters in the word you are after; eg -

17a - Looks like a wolf L?E?SA
33a - Rose makes a pipe BA???R

each had an extra letter thrown in. Actually, in each case it was the 'A'. Are you having problems with your keyboard?

But, alls well that ends well! Good luck. :wink:
