December Big
Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.

I had a blank moment and an incorrect answer in another answer going across which made the letters wrong for Disobedient
many thanks and seasons greetings

Hi welshlady,

Didn't know the answers but a quick google uncovered "HAUR" and "STUBBLE" as the probable solutions.

Good luck with your entry!

Hi Welshlady

I note that lmur and myself have different answers for the fog question, this is what my Encarta Dictionary states:

HAAR: in East England and Scotland , a cold mist or fog off the North Sea coast, or rolling in from the NorthSea.

Looks like like both spellings are acceptable:

( "haar" is about half-way down the page)

Dutchy, just out of curiosity, how many dictionaries do you have? Very Happy

Hi lmur

Found that site some years ago and used it ever since, with Google combined it usually finds 99% plus of the answers.
