@teauta,
Can you provide the clues, # of letters and the letters you've gotten so far? Many of us enjoy word games but we don't get the magazines. Thank you.

@teauta,
61d = publicise (Clue: announce hotel has slice I made)
68a = able ( Clue: portable contents? clever!)

@jespah,
Thanks Jespah. It is Mega No. 73 66d is n??o?e?o??s and the clue is ponders. Have had a look at a couple of Thesauruses and dictionaries, but nothing gels. The "n" comes off Panama, the 1st "o" comes off moose etcetera, etcetera! Thanks for your help

@teauta,
Hi teauta

You've got it all wrong! The clue comes from the Mega Stinker 66d and is "Ponders", the answer required is only 5 letters! You show no less than 11`letters???
The answer for 66d = MUSES

What you probably are after is 65d - clue "Fractions of time"
The answer for that is NANOSECONDS

Hope this helps!
