Don't understand it though a sit's MM in May- but volume is ml or mm cubed-(mm is length)

[fiction-factory]

birthday

[aelmpvw]

27a (y)ou (e)at (t)asty

[dannyk13]

17d.Birthday ( if your 'c' is wrong)

[aelmpvw]

mm can mean millions

[dannyk13]

A synonym of volume is size, so that would fit the clue,

[davidsluckylamby]

Thank you all for the quick replies - yes now I see Birthday my 23a was wrong - release the fearless relative (5) U?t?e presume that is now untie

[dannyk13]

Yes (A)untie (relative)

[fiction-factory]

I disagree danny- I think it's just a shoddy bit of clue setting danny.I just cannot see how volume can = mm in my book. We wouldn't expect volume to be km or feet or miles, so I can't see why it should be mm.

[dannyk13]

FF, OK.

[aelmpvw]

i don't see why volume can't mean millions

[dannyk13]

AEL, several thesauruses give size a a synonym so I agree with you.
