Also baffled by suggested parsing for 9dn.
Who is the 4 letter engineer?

Steam engines? I think "fish" must be plural.

I wasn’t convinced by that fish plural Chris. You wouldn’t say trouts or salmons (unless referring to different kinds of salmons I suppose).

Jono: He has 5 letters.
The only way this works is if engineer does double duty and even then I think there's a "t" left over.

Strongly agreed on the awkward fish plural in 9. Although I saw it right away, unlike the engineer. 😬

quoquncue@42:

"wooden thing" (a living thing) is 4 letters, "fish" (plural) 5 letters and "engineer" 4. Parses correctly IMO.

Not necessarily labourers. Prefixed with "house" gives a kind of servant and a word I had at least heard before
