How about a three letter word for a cube used in snakes and ladders...

followed by a two letter abbreviation for a set of books including Numbers and maybe Genesis...

and then reverse them


or maybe not - good enough for me though

I have cold-solved just over half the clues and have started filling the grid. My north-west quadrant seems to work and I have made a start on the north-east quadrant, but I fear I may have gone wrong. I have the answer to the "South Burmese....." clue and the answers to the "He acts oddly...." and "Pass hare..." clues interacting.

I have only solved two of the nine letter clues and the only one which will fit on the central row is the answer to the "Florid gold.... " clue.

In the south-east quadrant I have tentatively entered interacting answers to the "More down...." and "Eg, two-decker....." clues.

I know that specific answers can no longer be given on this site, but would it break the rules for some kind soul to tell me whether I have got any of these wrong?

Hi Opto, look again in the SE and part of the "South Burmese", "He acts" and "Pass hare"

Hello DSC (or other kind souls)

Am limping along at a very slow rate. Solved two more this morning. so would like to ask for another nudge if I may. Is the seven letter answer at the top of the second column the one that ends with 'choppers'.
If so I will set off again? A real tough one.

Thanks

Everything was going swimmingly until i got to the final part of the endgame and I seem to have made a mistake somewhere. My instruction on what to do "after extending the second instruction..." consists of an eight-letter word followed by six letters that don't make any sense. Is that the right number of letters for that instruction? Can anyone see where I might be going wrong?

Ha, I've just spotted it. How dim of me!

Sometimes I get so absorbed in the process that I don't look at what's in front of me. I had made a 'typo' as well but should have seen that straight away.
