aquatint
aquatint ?
Not sure how the clue works, though...my reading was it should have been an anagram of Quintet and A...presumably the same thinking as kawagino.
Perhaps the setter doesn't know how to spell.....
Question Author
I was thinking it might be an anagram of quintet and a. Wonder if my N could be taken away would it help.
Question Author
I am sure the setter is correct and I am now doubting my N.
7 Down Order about unknown number using derisive sound. ???R? (snort) sort (order)and an N for number.
There are not many anagrams of quintet and a
The two that I can easily find are Equitant and Quinetta, neither of which relate to the clue, as far as I can see....
Question Author
I think I shall go with the Aquatint, thanks to your help everyone. It does have a picture connection. Sorry been away Ladyalex, just got caught up in the Chelsea excitement.
No bother. Hope it's the right answer. :-))
