My little gray cells need a bit of help:
15 a Best to choose one mother (minimum?)
10d Tennis site reconstruction takes guts!
50a get back, young sheep (tug?)
Is there a formula or way of approaching the cryptic clues?
Thank-you a gazillion times!
@Annemarie Renaud,
Hi Annemarie Renaud
15a = OPTIMUM
10d = INTESTINES
50a = TEG
Go to Lovatts crossword site (http://www.lovatts.com.au) and you can read all about how to tackle the cyptics. Good luck.
@Dutchy,
Hi Dutchy
Many thanks for the help and for directing me to the advise on tackling cryptic clues. I find them daunting, but I reckon it is a matter of getting over that fear of failing to understand and regarding cryptics as an exciting challenge.
