Thank you - where did you get that word from? I can't find it in any of my dictionaries.....oh, got it now...….it's "tee" sounds like "t". the last letter in boat. I'm a bit slow on the uptake today......as always. Thank you again......and again.
You are welcome. :-)
I managed to get exocet, but am staring blankly at 7d: You'll find exams being reset as this (e.g. primary) (5) I've got re_ex and all I can find is remex - but don't get it.
REMEX is right.
...a compound anag - remove 'as' from EXaMs'RE (you missed out the 're).
...and in this instance the 'primary' isn't an exam but a feather.
Many thanks for confirmation! I managed to overlook primary in the remex definition also. Long day yesterday...
