Christmas greetings to everyone! I've had a crack at this xword and ploughed my way through. There's just one
small section where Kate seems to have been stuck for a
couple of words when compiling it and I don't feel easy with the solutions. They are 95 Across: - "Solids with four
triangular faces (12), for which I originally entered
*TETRAHEDRONS", then wondering why I couldn't solve
96 Down:- "Another word for nirvana" (7), I reluctantly amended this to "TETRAHEDRALS". The Down clue answer
appears to be "LIBRATA". I cannot find either of these words in both of my dictionaries, "tetrahedral" generally
being adjectival and not being a noun. Does anyone have
any reference to these anywhere?

TETRAHEDRONS looks correct. What letters does that give you in the other one?

Hello Chris E - If that was correct, the one down ("nirvana"),
would be N-B-A-A

I'll go along with that - thanks! I actually found a reference to "librata" which referred to "nirvana" and that threw me and made me believe the across answer that I'd entered was incorrect.
