Hi all, particularly Les40,

Was working on a clue...

If you use a usary ur fuct! blablabla!

Risqué enuff?

But was losing the will to live!

Found it very difficult this week...but Bullfrog did the businesses.

Well done both,

Well done bullfrog. May I add that I think it a bit much for Les40 to rule out my entry just because the name Yusuf Tucura exists only in my mind. Most of the names that pop up on this site are entirely fictitious as well.

Thank you Les and word-crossing chums. Just in from taking Mrs B out for a birthday meal at Jamie's Italian. What a nice surprise to come back to! I agree with the general sentiment that it was a pig of a word, and was (quietly) pleased that I managed to get a sensible clue out of it. I loved the prize, which I think I've seen before, long ago. I found it particularly convincing that he admitted, sadly,'Martian I don't know much about...'. Of course the most bizarre thing in the film is Patrick Moore's hair!
