colossus 225 uk stinker

Hi margsy

I suggest for replete SATED. and I feel MONOTONE is the only solution for drone. For your last question I suggest ARTS.

Difficult without the grid to help you further with ANNDORA.

Hi try changing your spelling 128d ANDORRA then monotone fits.
good luck sandray

Thank you sandray,that will teach me to look up in my atlas next time,andorra is a small country which is between france and spain, once again, thank you :->

Gday Dutchy, l too would have SATED for clue replete but then it would make my answer of FOLDS for clue melds wrong (something l think to do with playing cards),it has to start with a F as artwork in plaster is FRESCO.and also the answer to 134d -core of officers is CARDE and 133d go into is ENTER,hence l have the letters L?T?R for the clue to 146a replete. Hope you can understand my explanation,so it is a thing l will have to keep working at.Will hope to be able to do what we discussed sometime this week, plenty of time to get answers,closing date 16th Sept :->

How about Fuses for Melds to resolve the issue and accept Fresco, Cadre and Enter as correct answers. Cheers.

Hi I agree I had fuses
quite a hard stinker this month, good luck sandray

l say a BIG BIG THANK YOU for coming up with FUSES,much more suitable for the clue,and of course it fits in beautifully with the other words,and then l only had to find two more that l had forgotten about and now THANK GOODNESS this morning L FINISHED the grid, thank you once again to one and all for their help, good luck to all of you that needs to complete it,if l can be of assistance please email me, :-> :->

Yes sandray it is a real mind boggler,but thank goodness l have completed it, now onto the puzzles book,but got until october to finish it,soon be time for my next big to arrive. Keeps the mind going even though l do have my BLONDE moments, lol :->
