Hi Dutchy and Butterfly

Am nearly finished but have run into a whole block that I can't work out.

186a Sudden shudder of excitement, I have CRIS?ON
with 186d as COVER UP.
198a Attack, I have V?S???T
with 187 as INSTALL.
204a Scrutinised, I have R?A???ED (should be REVIEWED, I think)

and as for 188d, I have ??????G.

What a mess??? Can you help me sort them out?

Thanks

I think "Sudden shudder of excitement" would be FRISSON.

Hi Mac11

Thank you, I have looked Frisson up in the dictionary and you are right
so I can up 198a as ASSAULT again and try and work the others out.

How is Houston today?

This day last year I was in Los Angeles at Universal Studios.

Thanks and best regards

Tigiie

Hi Butterfly

I can always rely on you and Dutchy to help me when I can't work out
the answers.

All your answers fitted in with the help of Mac11 with FRISSON (thank
you Mac11).

This was really a STINKER this time.

Do you get a subscription from Lovatts? I do, but I am finding that the
books don't get to me until Monday now, they used to be here on Friday!!

Many thanks and best wishes

Tigiie

Hi Tigiie,

My books have been arriving anywhere between Mondays and Wednesdays lately. It's always exciting when you know a new book is due out, and you can't wait to get started all over again Laughing

Take care my friend.
Warm regards, Butterfly Very Happy
