Hi Everyone

Am doing the above crossword.

On 12d Louis XVI's royal house, I have B?U?BEN.
(Google keeps throwing this up as Louis VX1's instead of Louis XVI's.

Is this a Lovatt typo?

Many thanks

It should be Bourbon - you have something wrong with the "e".

Hi Boomerang

Thank you for that, I did have carburettor spelt as
carburetter.

Many thanks

Hi Tigiie,

It's nice to catch up with you again. Smile

I have the same answer as Boomerang.

12D. Louis XVI's royal house is 'The House Of Bourbon'

52A Car's petrol-mixing device is 'Carburettor'

Hope this helps. Post again if you get stuck.


Take care Tigiie.
Warm regards, Butterfly Very Happy

Hi Butterfly

Lovely to see you again.

I have so much wind here at the moment and it
keeps kicking me off line.

I have just two answers to get and then I have
finished.

They are 117d Ancient Mideast mound, I have TE?L
and 142d Fearless action, I have DE?RING DO with DOT as 191a and HEDGE as 141a.

Many thanks and warm wishes

Sorry, Tigiie, I looked in here earlier and saw your query had been taken care of and I didn't realise you had come back with another query until I saw you were browsing and thought I'd check it out.

117d Ancient Mideast mound is a TELL
142d Fearless action is DERRING DO
191a is DOT
141a is HEDGE

Hi Lezzles and Butterfly

Thanks for those answers. I had managed to get
TELL but DERRING DO, never heard of it!

It was a good Stinker this time, I enjoyed it.

Are you now doing the Holiday Collection? I have
all the answers for page 47 and am now on the
Collection $1,000 Pg 4 & 5.

If I have time, I am going to do the DIY in the BIG,
did it last month and sent it in but usually the winners have had years of sending in their DIY.

Anyway, good luck in the competitions but I will
never know if you have won because they print
"real names" for prize winners but anyway, lets all
win!!!!!!

Best regards and keep up the good work.

Tigiie
