Hi guys.
Hope someone can help me. Im always putting the wrong A's, E's, I's, O's, U's in the wrong places.. You'll understand what i mean when you read my questions. I always stuff up.
71A. Military foray (6). I have ?OGTIE. Thought it might be Dog Tie but not sure. Or I have stuffed up the other answers, which I usually do.
39A. Illustrious (7). I have EMIN?NT. Is it A or E. This is where i totally balls up.
59D. Very Off-Putting (9). I have REPELL?NT. Is it A or E. This is another one that I totally balls up.
I know they are pretty lame requests. But I always seem to get them wrong.
Yeah I know Im a dummy.,

Hi again Melissa,
I have reached for my dictionary this time.
71d - sortie
61a - fir
39a - eminent
59d - I went for the adjective repellant, noun is repellent.
I have not sent in my entry so will wait and see what answers you receive.

Thanks for your answers, they look correct but Im no Einstein.

Hi Melissa,
Was hoping someone would clear up the repellent repellant question. I am getting different answers from different dictionaries but am now leaning towards repellent!
Vernamae
Hi Melissa & Vernamae
I've only just become aware of your discussion about 59d of the Big Cash.
I've gone for repellent: a reference below.
serving or tending to repel; "he became rebarbative and prickly and spiteful"; "I find his obsequiousness repellent"
Hi Dutchy,
Thanks for your input. I was leaning that way and will go with repellent. Spell check even rejected repellant!
Good luck with all your entries.

Needing a couple of answers to finish this one.
36d. Kudos - PR?s?i?e
58a. Stratagem - sc?e?e
76d. 100 year old - cente?arian
Thanks
Sweda
Hi Sweda
36d = prestige
58a = scheme
76d = centenarian
Someone will probably verify above.
June Big
Thanks Dutchy, I can now send this one off.
Sweda
Don't forget half the prize is mine.
Hi E1, long time no post... been very very busy here lately.
Just need to clarify one in the BigCash.
96D, distribute _ out.
Is the answer doles? I am missing the middle letter.
Thanks for the help. Hope everyone is keeping well.
Cassie.
Hi Mrs Green
'doles' is the answer.
Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
June Big - Bigcash
Need a couple of answers to finish this one.
44a. Indulgence - tr?a?
78a. Extends (over) - R?n?es
Thanks
Sweda
ps Dutchy - if I win you can half the prize - haven't won anything yet.
Do you know if anyone has?
Hi Sweda
Your answers:
44a = treat
78a = ranges
Have filed your promise.
Yes, I know of a couple of people who won the big ones! Not me though, been trying for years, without success.
Have a nice day.
Dutchy.
I have:
44a = Great
78a = Ganges
Caution; I have never won either.

Dear tryagain.
My advice tryagain or read the previous posts or are you just trying to be a stirrer. Anyhow good luck with your entry if you have one.
Hi Tuesday
Try is an old friend of mine on the threads, he is just trying to stir my up, but as you will have noticed I didn't bite.
He is in fact a very clever individual, look at the riddle thread in a2k and you'll see what i mean!
Dutchy
Stumble It!
