Can someone put me right please?

I have the following answers and would appreciate confirmation please.

act of concealing about to be included in part - ?e??e???n I have secretion

one in Paris provided 99 making one - U???i? third letter is i if secretion is correct. I have unific (to make as one)

If those are correct it gives me a problem.

Sweet shape R?o?b The only thing I have is rhomb but cannot see the sweet connection.

Sorry to be so long winded.

Hi Claire,

Phil's beaten me to the punch with the first one! Un [French] + if [provided] + ic [Roman numerals for 99] and, according to the Blessed Chambers, rhomb is, amongst other things, a lozenge-shaped object.

Caravaggio, you are brill. The quick solve on this site says - a parallelogram with four equal sides; an oblique-angled equilateral parallelogram.

I suppose that is a lozenge. Thanks again.

Only one to go i.e. Coming from Amazon, not a circuit. M?n?a All I can think of are manna, manta and mania but cant make sense of it.

Thanks again,

Claire.x

Hi Claire,

It's Monza - Italian F1 circuit. Take one 'a' out of Amazon and you're left with an anagram.

Have a good day, carriad!

LadyBrynamman,

So you are from Roy Noble country.

If you are talking about the SWEPost,I always post mine on a Monday or Tuesday.

As the closing date is Thursday you can't leave it for posting on Wednesday as you cannot rely on the Royal Mail delivering next day even with a first class stamp.

My family post 4 off every week and we win occasionally - not that a £10 voucher changes your life!!!

Have you noticed that each week there is a spread of winners across the paper's catchment area. Not that I'm suggesting for one minute that they are not picked at random out of the sack!!!

P.S. If yours arrives on the Monday - it is at the bottom of the sack!!!!! (Just a thought.)
