Scottish Daily Mail Mon 6th Feb 2017

24a Guy wanders round lake...(4)


Why the ellipsis I don't know but it doesn't seem to link to the following clue to me.


25a ...following that tree father cultivated (10) Thereafter.

I didn't include that as I could see absolutely no link. If there is one (and I still can't see it...) then apologies for the omission....

Thanks, Rossim. I see the 'unprepossessing...' is from a Mail crossword of last year. I wonder if someone has regurgitated the clue, but not in its entirety? I wouldn't think the Mail would reprint an old crossword.

The paired clues weren't just in the Scottish Daily Mail. I recall seeing them recently in the more southern DM also.

@malone: during the Xmas break, the Saturday Mail printed the same crossword, two weeks apart, annoyingly!
