Thanks Colin.

The D B that I'm thinking of isn't used for navigation but is used under water.

Best Wishes.

Got it thanks
Didnt know that definition for roar should have looked in chambers in the first place

Yes, Jim, I have it now that I have noticed 6 and 4 letters. I note, also, you like to help quizzers think things out for themselves by giving them additional clues. Good idea.
Best Wishes, Colin

Sorry for delay in replying, have been too busy to quiz - glad to see your interest !!!
Yes mysterygal I do think 14 is a mistake - I left out the Y.
Jim C - The exact clue for 89 is 'A mistletoe root'

69. Another name for a sailor. 78. The greek letter is phi . Hope these help !! Do you have an extra clue for 7. Mix round a group of Spanish huts.(Nautical word beginning with A) and 29. This unseeing (nasty) person could belong to another category. Either a gem or mineral or game beginning with B. Many thanks!!!

Thanks got both those now. Have several ?? but only the one gap for the one you asked about misteloe root
29 is one of my ?? I have got a character from Treasure Island but cant find it as a game
7 I googled 'spanish huts' and found a 6 letter word starting with R

I have stuck at this solidly for about 4 days - and really enjoyed it

Hi Polly Dee et al,

I refused to be beaten by your conundrum and, by chance, have just found another article on mistletoe and the root system. The word which sprang off the screen was SINKER and I have just checked with the Blessed Chambers and, sure enough, it IS the correct answer.

Incidentally, if you hadn't noticed, the word 'trawled' in my previous post, was a nautical pun...

If I was a dog, my tail would be wagging furiously now!

Best wishes,

Caravaggio

Carravagio you are a star !!! Your persistance certainly paid off, I am most impressed!!!

Thanks also to mysterygal, I have a couple more I would like help with please :-
23. Mix around a fresh water fish of the carp family (either a nautical B or a gem/mineral A)
99. Snooty people (game/pastime S) (I can only think of snobs but not right!!!)

I am so sorry, I bow my head in shame, to have misspelt your name, Caravaggio !!
