The following has me well and truly stumped.
Would appreciate some assistance please.
232 Across 'Put right' ...... RE?T?S?
I thought the Answer may be Restore, however it does not fit with the following Down Answers I have.

For the corresponding Down Clues which incorporate the above letters, I have the following.
232 Down 'Football umpires' ... Refs
224 Down 'Control'... Operate
225 Down 'Stomach-settler' ...Antacid
226 Down 'Money chests' ... Caskets

As this is the last Clue I need to solve the Puzzle, it is driving me nuts.
I am at a loss on this one.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
EscapePod

Hi EscapePod

The word you are looking for is "rectify".

226d = "coffers" instead of caskets

Hope this helps.

Thankyou for that. It was driving me crazy. Just could not figure out which one I must have had wrong.
I can sleep soundly now and not have it going around, and around in my head. :-)
Thanks again.

Hi EscapePod

Just finished it myself. Dutchy's spot on. Change caskets to coffers and RECTIFY is your answer. All your others are the same as mine. Good luck in the competition. Grannylynne
