Hi there,

It's a different compiler today, and I'm struggling a bit.

Grateful for any help with the following:-
13a (6) 'Cars run across Sweden'. I've got ?o?e?s
27d (2,3) 'Cut about fifty finally, those belonging to me'. I've got ?y ?w? and can't decide between 'my two' and 'by two'.
5d (5) 'Crab starter not included in sea food'. ?a???
6d (6) 'Handle changeover in Athens'
15a (6) Area composed of trees abandoned by townie finally'. ?????t

Many thanks in advance.

Thanks to all of you. I've now managed to get 5d (balti) and 6d (snathe) thanks to your help.

Now the only one I need is 29 d (4) '15 on a table or 15 here'. r?d? (The answer to 15 was 'forest').

Cheers

Thanks for that. I've just Googled Nottingham Forest and I see they're called The Reds. I know nothing about English football teams, nicknames etc. but if you need any help with Scottish stuff - just ask!

Thanks again.
