Hi
I like that better than ocarina - it helps me with 18D and 19D which were impossible before!
Thanks for your help

Sorry to squash - but Lymph is a secretion from a glad, not an organ. Why don't you give us some of the other clues to help?

The Y fits in with BUYER - the clue for which is : shopper at one we hear
The P fits in with INPUT the clue for which is: Singular new word, say...

I think this compiler is suggesting lymph gland as an organ??
