# 37, 13D: Feat resulting in a coat of arms. ANS: Achievement.

I get feat etc, but coat of arms?

Achievement is simply a word for a coat of arms, a term in heraldry etc.

Colmm, do you have a copy of Chambers Dictionary? It's great for crosswords. I prefer the book, many solvers use the app. Some of the words you've queried - Are, Nike and Achievement - are in there, so you'd resolve things (for yourself) quicker. Of course, we'll be more than happy to continue to help you on this Forum!

Tnx malone for both posts.

I have completed all 80 puzzles in this book, # 13, by filling in answes from the solutions when I could no longer work them out myself.

Now, I am trying to link answers to quetions which I cannot resolve despite reviewing them many times.

I will carry on using the forum, which has been of great assistance with this book, as it was with book # 3.

Colmm, thanks. I get so much pleasure from checking things in Chambers, looking things up in Chambers, just browsing through Chambers... I'd like everyone to share the experience!

I'm glad you've found the Forum to be so helpful - and I'm sure that will continue.

# 37, 20D: Queer fish in fish trap - cod. ANS: Weirdo.

I get fish trap and weir but the rest?

Weirdo = queer fish
Weir = fish trap
Do = cod, kid, joke etc.

Tnx again Malone. So easy when explained. I know a few queer fish myself !!

# 38, 16D: What may give damage in a china shop. ANS: Price tag.

I get damage and price, but the rest?

Just a cryptic definition, I think. No bulls involved.
