Thank you cherrie, as l thought some of my other answers are not correct, but with regard to 100a there was a printing error on the page and it looked like a ! not a l, but once again thank you very much. ttfn

Hi margsy
Nice to see you back, checked my copy looks OK, but have had same problem reading clues, maybe new glasses
Will do this tomorrow. What do you think of the new fresh look?
Cherrie as ever is coming up trumps
James

Hello James34, have not needed to come onto the forum, brain seems to have been working right just recently, now it is slowing down again, hahaha. Not sure what you mean by the new look. Yes cherrie is a great replacement for our good great sadly missed Dutchy. Still got a couple of grids to complete on this issue of BIG, got my new crossword collection, so for a change l have had a go at this and have completed one or two of the new grids. Hows your weather up there, l was hoping to go to town today but because of the storms last night and it is still raining, we thought it a bit silly to go out with my wheelchair.

Hi margsy
Are you wheel chair bound. My wife has MS.
Weather, sun and rain.
I am an octogenarian the brain works,, then forgets and kicks back into gear
Another day.
Good to be alive
Jim

Hope your wife is well today, l knew a lady back in Hainault where l used to live, she was very young and used to take her kids to school and give the dog a run as well whilst she rode her scooter, here where l now live is an almost double for that lady, it is good to see her being so independent. lts is good to be alive and fairly well although not able to walk without help, legs packed up some years ago because of the job l used to do. Hows your weather, we have alternating weather every day. Talking of age, on my daughters web site for FB she has a wonderful photo of a gentleman who is 105yr old, he was the british chap who got a lot of kids out from under the nazi noses to bring them to britain to have a better life. Good to see.
