On web found that this puzzle has two clues I do not have??
9 ac Worked hard to accept what's badly made using old technology (5-6) --e-- driven?
27ac Time is useful having to get over a natural barrier (3,4) t-e -l-s?
My 9 across is WORST DRINK FOR YOUR HEALTH (7,2) and 27 Ac: A bit less capital delivered easily (7)
Does anybody else have these variants?
Thanks

Yes I can see these are the answers to those clues. But my times 25197 does not have those clues but rather the ones I posted??????

Hi Orienteer the web puzzle is always different to the paper version, the answer to 9a is BOTTOMS UP. Haven't got much in the bottom half. Anything there would help me.

Many thanks for bottoms up. But never had this problem of differing clues before. As to 27 a I have no letters yet so no more help available I am afraid

I should have said 27 a is 7 letters. Sorry

perhaps someone else will comment on the difference in clues, I just recall a few weeks back a thread coming up with different clues to my 'paper' ones. If you get one or two in bottom half please let me know, the top seemed easy but can't get started below.

Plodder: 27a in the paper version is 'lightly' (double definition).
