figure out the following 3.
1d. essay at end of soft - cover book.
2d. doctors ann met in tours and contests.
25a. commercial break has no purpose.
Thanks in advance to all you brainy people.

Holiday cryptic 61
Hi gwen I will give you my answers but please don't ask me to explain.
1d Paperback
2d tournaments
25a adrift.
Perhaps someone else will confirm for both of us. Good Luck
I'm just helping maisy ( a newbie) out. cause she seems to have had part of her brain removed.

Hi Gwen and others
Confirming Tuesday's submissions.
1d = paperback = essay = paper + soft-cover book = paperback
2d = tournaments = anagram of (ann met tours)
25a = adrift (ad + no purpose = no aim = drifting)
Good luck with your entry.
Thanks Tuesday and Dutchy I knew it would turn out be something
as plain as the nose on my face. Should have known paperback
I read enough of them.
Thanks again, will probably be back with some stinker
questions.
