@stinger99,
I think, 2 Down is prompted
1 Down is practice
And 11 Across is avow.
Still not sure though, any other suggestions ?
16 Across is proud
3 Down is awards

@margsy,
I'm not sure what happened, I got just this one message and I did get replies from James 24 . Does it happen when you answer others?
