Pitcherwits

[retrocop]

No answers please. My old mincers are playing up on Pitcherwits as usual.
Could any one please tell me what the diagonal column is meant to depict in the picture clue for 1A and am I to assume the hand tool in the picture clue for 7d is an AWL sounds like ALL ? TIA :-)

1a.Bone
7d.Yes

[MargoTester]

I think the first word is all not awl but can't make out second one myself

[dannyk13]

Margo, Retro doesn't want answers just clues.

[retrocop]

Thanks danny and Margo
I'm going for all in 7d and that looks nothing like a bone in the paper but I don't disbelieve you. I know it is better defined on-line. Just awful drawing imo. :-)

[MargoTester]

I realise that Danny, was just confirming what Retro thought. Good afternoon to you both.

[dannyk13]

You are correct in 7d.Bone fits in with the answer.

[retrocop]

mmmm reach for the latin dictionary me thinks. summer bonus ???? :-)

[mac44]

close Retro.

[dannyk13]

Close Retro 3 letters wrong.

[MargoTester]

Retro - look at 4d for the last letter of 1a

[retrocop]

cracked 1a. Anybody would think we are former members of the Bullingdon Club. I suppose the Eton elite would get that one straight away. :-)
crack on with 7d now. summum ruddy bonum indeed . :-(

[MargoTester]

Think they must assume that everybody did Latin at school.

[dannyk13]

CJ Rebus excelled himself today, took me twice as long as usual.

[mac44]

. summum ruddy bonum - too many letters Retro.

[dannyk13]

lol

[retrocop]

All Wise. That's my final answer Chris.!!! :-)

[dannyk13]

Good one Retro and thanks for BA.on my last leg to retiring from the race.

//on my last leg to retiring from the race.//

Oh dear danny. What does that mean?

[MargoTester]

That's what I got Retro. Danny seem to remember you said that at 3000 :-))

When I reach 5,000 BA's I intend to take the turbo off my keyboard.
