Thanks Diday. Got no.14. If EA isn't East Africa, is it East Anglia as that is nearer home?

My mind doesn't seem to work very well with the clues although with help so far, have managed to solve some of they. However still stuck on no.1 despite clues about an anagram/Greek letter = EA(?) river. No 6 starting Independent Bishop; no. 10 plaingirl in Virginia etc; no.11 but in Paris etc and finally no. 12 which I know is an anagram. Still can't solve these. Can I please ask for help again - thanks.

Thanks Winnie. Got Nos 1 & 12 now. Re no.4 are we talking about a ranch cowboy or a 'cowboy' builder or similar? Once I have solved this it just leaves Nos 10 & 11 and I don't think any clues have been given for these two so far?????

Winnie you are an angel. Got them all but the cowboy one. Some alternative words for cowboy are drover, herder, gaucho. I presume I am looking for a six letter word for cowboy to add to the letters: I for independent and RR for Right Reverend? Am I on the right track or not?

Hi haeremai18, If you are happy then so am I!
Yes Waddy is correct for 6.
Now, if you are anything like me, when the quiz is finished I miss it !
See you next time.

Please could somebody help with my last one - 5. Thanks Crockett for previous help, but I just can't work it out. Is it an anagram? If so an anagram of what?
