Oh yes - I thought the construction of #5 was just a teeny bit laboured!

It was certainly what it had to be!

Welcome Andyc. Chris! I'm a bit dense today. I get KIROV but fail (as I did with one of Tony's Mephisto clues) to see the subtractive indicator. LABOURED!!! ME? Boo hoo! lol :) Yep, It was quite difficult to phrase that one, so I used some punctuation marks to get it to make a wee bit of sense.

See you all later.

Hi Jolan
I've got #3 , but that's all at the moment. I shall persevere.

That's why I said that it wasn't as fair as yours, jolan.
Sorry - I didn't mean to be rude about #5 - I just thought the "surface" didn't flow quite as well as usual.

Chris! You were not in the slightest rude. I laughed at your perspicacity in seeing how I laboured to try and make it look sort of sensible.

Hi Rossim. Nice to 'see' you.

Yes Andy, an old favourite of mine. I try to leave a gap before bouncing on of them onto "5".

That's a relief, jolan.








btw my idea for #4 relies on PP meaning "planned parentage"!
