Hi rosie read the title as i to ix roman numerals 1 to 9, coinciding with 9 unclueds.

Thanks again ginge.

I thought of Roman numerals but missed the 9 unclued
connection.

Surely there are 9 answers, some of which occupy more than one numbered answer space, so we have to double up.

Hi mathsman, if you reread the preamble you will see each of the 9 unclueds requires an insertion in an unchecked cell, here i to ix in the more common 1 - 9 to make 9 expressions.

Enjoyed this despite having to alter a couple of the unclued ones once I got 1 down - quite clever - some of them had more than one possible answer until I got them all (if that makes sense).
