[chokkie]

hello Ff, that's what I thought it was originally, but the across clue (11a) is "hyperbolas" - unless anyone out there can tell me different ....
(clue is "exaggerated as an open curve" 10 ltrs: h?p?r?o???

Thanks, Chox.

As my CHAIN and ON TOP don't quite fit I think you need to check a coupel of answers, chokkie

hyperbolic?

24a On top - pot no reversed

[factor-fiction]

I think the plural would have been hyperbolae anyway

[chokkie]

yes, thanks, it is "hyperbolic" and definitely "on top" - have changed 14d to "desert fox". Chox.

[chokkie]

any thoughts on 12d and 10a

PS: they have really messed up the numbering of the grid in the top half, this week.

[factor-fiction]

Do the answers you now have give you any extra letters , or change any letters, for 12d?

[dannyk13]

10a. See post at 07.29

[factor-fiction]

Dannyk has got 10a- DEVA- devastated minus stated

[dannyk13]
