225d. Fanciful. I have unreAl : A
253d. Spawned. I have Begot: B
237d. Mystified, all at ... I put seA: A
254d. Halt. I put Cease: C
238d. Favours owed. I put i.o.Us: U

I cannot see any connection between the clue: Misgivings and the answer I have ended up with ABACUS. Can anyone please put me out my misery!
Do I have the right answer, or have I missed something! Any help would be appreciated.

Hi helyn 2001
There was a mix up with the clues in this puzzle. The correct clue for 252a is bead calculator so your answer abacus is correct.
This information was on the Lovatts website, maybe have a quick look there. Your sanity has been returned

Dear Tuesday,
I am very grateful for your assistance.
When I got to that clue I thought I was having a 'senior moment' for want of a better expression.
I haven't logged on since last week, due to a dose of the flu.
Just wanted to apologise for my tardiness in acknowleding your help.
Thanks again!
