[elliemay1]

go to hell

[fiction-factory]

I was only trying to help, ellie

[fiction-factory]

^:-)

temp is hidden in clue

[Captain2]

Can't really see 'Temp' as an adviser?

[fiction-factory]

Was meant to be ;-)

[Captain2]

26 Have we got the full clue there chess?

[fiction-factory]

I agree Captain. It is RTE though and clue may not be quite right

[Mamyalynne]

26 Aide

[Mamyalynne]

Initial letters

[fiction-factory]

AIDE then.
I'm not sure that's any better but it's probably right. Do we know any letteers?

[fiction-factory]

Ah- missed the first 20:54 post Mamyalynne

[fiction-factory]

So the Aide is used in the wordplay and in the definition? It would be better if clue ended with ...employment initially/originally, IMO

[chess]

thanks all looks good

[fiction-factory]

I don't see how AIDE works- it fails on two counts for me- but it seems to be the answer. (Deanys is usually right and it's given there)
