lovatts mega stinker 65

Hi tigerblue.

I have the following:
188a = TERNE
178d = VERSO
177d = DITTO
177a = DEVICE

Hope this helps.

Hi Dutchy,
Just been checking some answers want to query 177d your answer DEVICE, to me this means a gadget etc, but to concoct to me means DEVISE as in concocting a plan etc. It also fits with 172d RATE = ASSES.
What do you think?

Sorry I meant ASSESS.

Hi smithy.

You are correct, I made a typo in my answer, re-checked my entry and have DEVISE there. Thanks for picking that up.

Could you please have a look at my post - Cryptic 225 (UK Edition). Thanks.

Looks pretty good to me including 64d MATTER. Haven't come across this cryptic yet. If your solutions fit in with other words in the grid you should be right.

Good luck.

Thanks Mate
