Blimey! Well done quizzers. I'm only about half way. But on my own. My other half not interested in quizzes or crosswords, so no one to bump ideas with.

Nonplussed, I'm like you - a solo solver and only about halfway through. I used to rush through it, but decided there was no need - with the closing date being months away, I can take my time.

I’m also a solo solver. I don’t know how some of you can solve all these clues in so little days. Please let me know your secret. I only managed 51 so far.

job 1980 - No great secret! Retired several years, solo solver, really good selection of reference books - plus lots of patience! Keep at it!

Thanks Douglas. I have the trusted Oxford Dictionary plus a crossword solver book plus I use many web pages. Trouble with me is that when I have this idea in my head I can’t get it out of my head and then I spend ages on playing around with it either to prove I’m right or I’m was wrong like with one of the clues.

This is SO good to see!!
I too have completed 99 of these brilliant clues, I have a possible answer for the remaining one, but seriously doubt it is correct!!
Have put the quiz to one side to give the brain cells to re-group and then maybe if I look at it again in a few weeks, I will see the light!!

Interesting to see all your comments. We have friends who also enjoy the Rainbow quiz, so it’s a bit competitive to see who can get the most before we meet over a drink to pool ideas. We still need 4 and I am definitely stuck but shall probably be begging for hints at the appropriate time! But it is another brilliant quiz, well done Neville,

I too am a regular doing the the Rainbow quiz. I am pleased to see that the comments are confined to general observations and not requests for help. I completed my last question on Friday 22nd (Number 69).Good luck to you all.
