Thanks lady bee.
I am still being thick as can make no sense of the initials.

Something to work on.

47 - Reverse Civil Service abbrev. and reverse2 letter word. An old fashioned tax

Thanks, nonplussed. I was trying to reverse 4 initial letters together. Ending up with no vowels.

Have heard a saying about that tax. Should have known it.

I can't convince myself that I have the right answer for 61. I think it's a collector, but if so why is it in the past tense? Or am I barking completely up the wrong tree?

Just had another look at it. My answer was Philatelist, but that can't be right because it's the wrong number of letters.

Are you sure it is the wrong number of letters, calliewag?

I am obviously going mad, I just read the number of letters as 10, and there isn't a 10 within a mile of that clue (I may have exaggerated there a bit). Still don't understand why it's a past tense, though, there must still be some around? There's no anagram there, is there?

Calliewag It has the word 'late' in the word?

Any help with these would be great thanks.
