Hi reahannon

Confirming canoe's submission bar one.

I have "art" for 59a. however let's keep this one open and see if we get other responses who feel "act" is the correct answer.

Both could well qualify I feel.

Dutchy

The Thesaurus has act and art as synonyms of Drama. Possibly a tossup!

Thanks farkha.

I have the same answers as Dutchy except for 59a, I have act so I am hoping that farkha is correct and both answers are correct.

Hi Everyone, I put act for 59a. I know drama is an art form but if
you say someone is putting on a bit of drama they are usually acting.
Don't know if that makes any sense to anyone but me.
Maybe they will take both. I finally won a prize in the last Holiday
Collection - a lovely pen - the first thing I have won since moving to
Victoria -- yippee. Good luck everyone. I will probably be back for
help after I sort things out.

Well done Gwen, you are the 2nd one from our little group here that won a prize. I'm still waiting.

Dutchy

Congrats gwen.

Weighing in with my thruppenceworth. I believe "ACT" better fits the clue and that gwen's interpretation is correcT.

Good luck all!

At the moment, I art partial to act.

I started with art, but then changed to act after thinking a little.
"ACT" is a bit of a drama, where drama is a bit of "ART".... so I guess act fits better to the clue?
Maybe Lovatt's will take both answers?
