alurepal

The (french) phrase is in Chambers 1- 1'8

a l'outrance

thank you - much appreciated

I'm missing one letter. For 24a: Core religieux will consume this before even (the result of confusion) (5, 2 words) I have O_ERE. I'm assuming it's French rather than Latin, and I'm just drawing a blank. Also, for 32a, where does the extra E come from? The anagram pool seems to have only two of the critters.

Hi Aristo

24a Or Ere

32a - the only way I could get this to work was to assume the (2nd) ie is to be read as 1e

Thanks, ixion. I did think it must be OR ERE but didn't get the clue (though the answer of course bridges the first two words). As for the i.e.- hm; you're probably right, but I don't think it's playing fair. Are you sunning yourself in the Hebrides?

Can someone explain 15ac for me? Uteri I assume, but why? Also, in 31ac where is the 'get far away' bit in ming, not to mention the agricultural bit. As you can see I do a lot of guessing of answers!

Hi Teenieleek

Take 'far' away from farming (agricultural) to get 'ming'
Havent got 15 ac either, but looks like 'uteri'

Thanks SuzieM. Still puzzling over uteri though.

UTERI
