Hi everyone - I've solved no 61 !
Had brainwave !!! as soon as I'd asked for help.

Thanks Rigby.
I had the right answer for the wrong reason, though i did begin to wonder if Tenet was a Spanish wine. It's good to have your assurance.

You're welcome Shane.
Can anyone help with No. 97, ''His digs may well be in old housing''

Can anyone please give me addition clues for:-
68. The courage that needs to go with a splash (6)
78. Copper taken in, bewildered by six footer (6) and
81. How spin bowlers make a meal of the batting side (9)

Hi Winnie

68 ends with a T and is another word for ghost as well as courage
79 also ends with a T as is an insect with six legs and therefore 6 feet with the usual 2 letters denoting copper in the middle of the answer
81 is yet another one ending with a T and is a meal.

Would appreciate some guidance for No. 61 which you have said you have solved. Thanks in advance

Rigby, think of the person Howard Carter was.

Hi Winnie
79 - I thought the 2 letters for copper were at the start of the 1st word not in the middle of the answer.

68 think whisky rum vodka etc 78 a a swarm causes problems in many African contries 81 Thinks of an early morning meal



Please could anyone help with clues to 79 What we may have to reduce to meet the electricity bill 84 Change not required for journeys in the, 87 Daily pressure that keeps offoce work down

Hi Freddo

My answer for 79 ends in a T for the second word and you need to think of another word for electricity followed by another word for bill to give what most people have for paying bills etc.

I think 84 starts with a T and is a form of transport that gets you from a to b on rails.

The start of 87 is 5 letters and something lots of people have delivered each day, followed by 6 letters meaning pressure. Don’t think these are used nowadays in offices.

I would welcome help with No 1 as have 2 possible answers neither of which I am sure about.

Hi Myla

Think there is some confusion between 78 and 79 as 79 doesn’t mention copper
