Afternoon all...

"Trouble? Spin dry corded fabric" = perturb.

Many thanks.

PS to Roy - thanks for the note about the wrong puzzle on your site t'other day. Wee suggestion - maybe put the current day's solution TOP of the list??

rep is a corded fabric and brut means very dry (especially champagne).
Spin or reverse rep and brut to get perturb.

Thanks torvic. I'd never have figured 'rep'...

As the query is resolved, there's little likelihood of this being read (so start a new thread, pillock...) but would it not help if the title to a new query specified the paper etc, rather than heading with a "Help!" or similar non-specific squeak of anxiety?

Juss a thort...

Hi Robtherich, in a nutshell - yes.
why you choose to post this on pooksahib's thread is a mystery tho.

to be a bit more positive, I like the phrase "non-specific squeak of anxiety".

"Cos of Pookie's suggestion further up the page.

And, thanks!

Robtherich.
I think pookie was talking about a different forum, were you too?
I can be very thick sometimes.

Indeed, I was talking about the layout of the site run by Roy wherein he lists each day's Daily Mail solutions.
