Hello
I am using crossword clue solver for completing a crossword puzzle.
I just put in the letters b s i in their appropriate places and entered the number of letters and the word "broomstick" did not come up on the screen. I have a screen capture to prove it. When I typed in all the letters the results below the letter boxes of course showed the word. But I am repeatedly experiencing entering some of the letters of a word and the word does not appear in the listing of the results. I have checked to make sure the letters are in the right location and the number of letters is also correct. Is there something I am doing wrong here?

I strongly suspect that you didn't scroll down which will have led you to the 2nd page which gives the definition of broomstick as...



1. A stick used as a handle of a broom.

Very odd, I typed in the letters you gave and on the 2nd page I got broomstick.

But you do need to scroll down - it's not on the first page.

Suggest (respectfully of course) that you have another go.

Thank you very much, Sally W. Have now, at last, got the answer to Times cryptic 49ac which had really been bugging me!
