Hi everyone, I'm usually a DM cryptic nanna, but being holed up in my Welsh hideaway today, I have not ventured the 2 mile hike for the paper! I am stuck on the last one here which is: Meddled, tinkered (7)i?b?l?? Not even sure about the b.
Thank you all.

Thank Bullfrog.. It is dabbled. The I was wrong. I had interned instead of detained. All done now. It is back to my knitting, as no more crossies till I go for a walk through the Welsh hills to villags shop!

Bullfrog: There's a shortage of Fs and Ls here. Could you send some over? You seem to have more than you need.

Not far from here there's a lake named Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. It's Nipmuck for "You fish on your side, I fish on my side, nobody fishes in the middle." Note that there are no Fs or Ls. We need them badly.
