I think 60 is CHAPEL. take leon out of cellophane and rearrange the letters that remain.
Have not received the UK edition yet

Hi Barb Walker
1 down = STRIKING
25 across =DREAMED
27 down = UPPER CASE
Do you have answers to 45 down Persuaded company to ditch head of department? And 54 down - Make a start on property claims for foreigners?
