[traveller10]

Last one. No. 57 The night attire of a painter, for instance, is considered to be the best (4,7) I have ana answer which includes pajamas but the rest doesn't fit the clue

[aelmpvw]

cat's pyjamas?

[dannyk13]

should painter be panther?

[aelmpvw]

must be danny, no wonder i can't parse the painter bit :-)

[traveller10]

Yes I had cat's pajamas but I'm not certain that such a mistake would be made in the clue

[naomi24]

Painter is right.

//Cougar

Due to its wide range, it has many names, including puma, mountain lion, catamount, panther and painter. //
