lines for being late (7) e - - - g - a

Tom, and eulogia

They seem obvious once you tell me
Thank you
Can I also verify;
problems about trainee's drinks(9) m - s - a - e -s muscatels? and if so why about trainee's?

when dictating tantalises secretaries (5) times?

t - - - s

Last one is temps I| think - sounds like tempts

It's MUSCADETS = MUSS (problems) around CADET (trainee)

thanks everyone
Do any of you write these crosswords or is it lots of experience that you are so quick?a

I don't compile crosswords but have been solving them for longer than I care to remember.

Hi Zed - As John says, it comes from many years of doing xwords. If you enjoy them, just keep on, and you'll find the tricks that compilers use.
