Hi Tuesday

With the help of some A2K friends I found the following answers:

3d = grapes

10d = martial

22a = divine

26a = wearies

I'm sure somebody else will confirm above.

Regards Dutchy

Hi Tuesday,

3D. Vintage crop = Grapes
right = R
r + pages is an anagram of 'grapes'

10D. To do with military life = Martial
'Marital' is an anagram of 'martial'

22A. Perceive intuitively = Divine
like a god = divine

15D. Fire up = Ignite
'lads' departure = take the letters 'lad' from the word 'detailing'
the left over letters will give you an anagram of 'ignite'

26A. Gets tired = Wearies
ram = aries
mostly 'ewe' = we
we + aries = wearies

Post again if you need more help Tuesday.
Regards, Butterfly Very Happy
