Thanks chrise. I always thought it was K, but I've not played chess for years.

K was (and still is) King; Kt used to be used for Knight, but obviously N uses less ink.

Hi everybody! I`ve got `campari` for 16ac.
Will someone please tell me if that`s right - and if so, why??? Mags.

Ingenious, mags, but unfortunately I don't think it's correct.

hi magworth
Sorry to say campari is not the answer.
first 3 letters synonym for hit. Last 4 name of a drink . Whole word = bond

Thank you chrise and jazzgirl. I was trying to
work in`pari` - an anagram of `pair` to mean bond!!
No floods here but approach roads - the M25 and A127 have been affected. I hope others are OK.
Mags.

We have been relatively lucky in East Lancs. Although the summer was dreadful, it has only been "normally" wet the last couple of months.
We had a break in the Forest of Bowland in August, when walking through the fields was like trying to walk through porridge. It is actually marginally better now, though a walk a couple of days ago had long stretches where every step risked a lost welly!

I have to smile at the comments on this forum, what's wrong with finding the answers for yourself, it's only a crossword, not like football (more than life or death) there seem to be some lonely souls about, looking for someone to contact, more than seek answers, lately it's started to become a weather summary!
Just to keep it in context, here's one of mine, for you real addicts;
A 9 letter word, and the clue is 'prepostorous orchestra'
Once you have got it, can you explain the deeper meaning of the clue, it has to do with definitions.

Never a good idea to put the Cart before the horse.
