Rickye, think of pools payouts, this is a shortened version. The clue is 3 definitions. But it relates to MALES, not AR?A. If you simply leave an empty centre file, your entry will likely be accepted. I tried burning mine...

You wait over an hour for an answer, then three come at once.

Confusion reigns. I have males and div, and also satisfied with gut, rain and kist but it is personal share of turnip spirit I do not get which I assume goes with ARA as the others make sense. I see the sense of the fold as it restores the original entries but my nine letters are not making sense assuming that INIPANGAE are correct.

Oops! Div is the first one. I had made it fit for simpleton so need help with b3 not b1.

Div is a shorthened version of dividend, as well as being a 'turnip' and a spirit.
B3 is MEN, You'll find that fits with AR*A.

Your central letters are a little awry. I think I see what you were trying to do with the second 'I' (in the 3rd row, I guess) - but it's wrong. Also there needs to be an 'A' somewhere near the bottom. Then google the last 7 letters.

Finally got there after about ten hours of effort and a bit of help off here as to the theme. Excellent puzzle I thought.

Would appreciate it if someone could let me have the extra letters for the first e answer, the f answer and the first g answer. Have what I think is the second (four letter?) word missing from the instruction and I can't figure out what would fit.

Thanks

In your order f, e and f. Word is five. Hope this helps.

I have just finished. I assume that the group B letters are not actually entered in the grid?

Tina, I think the Group B answers are just intended to help with choosing the correct letters for the unchecked cells of the Group B entries, in a thematic fashion.
