Ardler - thanks for that, I thought it might be only me who was bewildered by that sentence!

It makes sense to me but I'm not entirely fluent in 'self-satisfied' speak. Will you enlighten me please?

Pedant...Aptly named. Does that make sense?

Has Rob escaped from somewhere or run away from his carers.

Is it just me, or is 10/ 15 a mistake? Letters are 5, 4, but 10 comes first and it's the 4 letter word.

At times I despair!

Yes. I escaped from school when I was 18. I don't want to go to war with everyone but you appear to take yourselves so seriously. Just lighten up.If anyone asks for help with a particular clue, they are not expecting to be reprimanded. I do crosswords for fun but it does not ruin my day if I fail. I'm not convinced that's always the case with some of you.

Yes it was just me, lovely one araucaria. Enjoy your debate folks, over and out x

I think that, for some, the completion of any given crossword is not necessarily why they contribute to the site.
Quite often I cant get to the papershop so this site is a nice diversion which I enjoy. To have that enjoyment it is pointess telling me 19ac is "5/11" without a clue etc. a short while ago some of the regulars tried to introduce a protocol which meant that clues and letters be included to open the forum to all. Is that so bad?

I'm stuck with 5 down s?v?? ?i?l?. Could be seven hills but I can't make that make sense. Clue 'Multifaceted area - see the last one encased in shutters (5,5)'
