This is my first go at mephisto,so can anyone help with my last 8?!:15a upsee? 27a iasci-/casii-? 31a --n-h-nla-? 1d a-dl? 4d Tassell? 15a --st---s ? 24d a---s? 29d yl-e?Will supply clues if really necessary:my appeal goes out really to the more experienced who will have everything in front of them,I presume.Many thanks in advance for any assistance!

greedy kite,
the clues are always pretty necessary.There are loads of very clever (and experienced) people who won't have everything in front of them.

Think 31 ac is kinchinlad

why do you assume that everyone has the Sunday Times?
It's more fun if we can see the clues.
how do people get to learn?

29dn is ylke

trevor and tonyw, I was about to suggest that clues be given. I did do the crossword, and remember the 2 answers I gave, but have recycled the paper now, so can't check anyway. Greedy hawk, you will find that if you give clues you have a much wider group of people willing to help, purely for the enjoyment of solving.

I've posted my entry, and haven't a copy, but I believe 1d was awdl, and 24d was acis

Sorry, I'm wrong with 24d. I think you're looking for iastic (Ionian - Greek 0 but i've forgotten the number
