So glad to be back to normal Tuesdays.
I`m stuck on 4d: ?R?E?T?. I`ve thought it`s `cruelty` but can`t see the connection with `vineyard`. Help or hint appreciated! M.

Hi Magworth
Yes it is cruelty.
cru = French vineyard + let + Y (end of July)

Good evening all.
No difficulty this week ... some very good
clues.Magworth, cru is a French vineyard so
you have the correct solution.
8d brings to mind a very naughty RAF song
of the 1940s but totally out of place in
this refined forum!!!
With besr wishes,

Goog to hear from you Nimrod and navigator. I trust you are both well.
Best wishes

Many thanks! As usual - I worked it out as soon as I`d asked for help! Re 8d. My husband was in the RAF but I don`t know the song (I didn`t know him in the 40s) He was quite a bit older than me so he probably knew it ! M.

Good Evening, All and a Happy RT Birthday to me.

Yes, indeed, it was RT3 in 2011 that I made my arrival onto the RT scene, shouting an answer from the rooftops. Wee Jock took me aside and sort of gently pointed out that this was not the way to behave on this site. I have tried to act appropriately ever since. Where is WJ, by the way. We haven't heard from him for quite a while. Also AJT. Are you ok, Audrey?

Anyway, RT3 for this year wasn't too bad, but it did take me a while to sort out the one about the oxygen container.

Hope all are well, especially the invalids of our number.

Best Wishes.

I am aghast... seriously aghast!

I started off on the R.T. thread around Oct 2010.

And I have always thought that you have been around...for ever!!!!! (Sorry turning into THEAMBLER there!!!!!)

You seem so much of an institution...and that is a compliment.

Take care

Happy New Year all! Happy anniversary Mr Meerschaum! (Is that how you spell it?) Some pretty obscure ones this week, I thought. Can I have clues please for 10A and 2d?
It's good to know what day to look for the RT. The 17% price increase is an outrage, I think my decades of RT reading may come to an end.
