yes, UMAR is right, hankir.

The 'fiddle' is the RIM on the edge of a tray.

ProfessorMaisie

In the perimeter are the six items not given by the clues - there's a comprehensive wiki entry that shows the full list and everything else you need to finish the puzzle.

Thanks ProfessorM.
If 6 of 12 go in perimeter, I do not see a Y in any of those. I have Y from 27d.
Where does the perimeter begin?

ProfessorMaisie

Rosemary ends there (and there's another 'y' in the corner cell to the right) they're all English translations of the French words.

ProfessorMaisie

I think you're looking for the other group headings rather than the entries for just the one spelled out in the circled cells, hankir (there's many more than 12 of them).

I guessed all the answers around the perimeter. Though I have not yet figured out which group they belong to.
I have I,B,E,Y in four corners.

I can change 4 letters in one direction to get a Holiday in that country.

I will now have to figure out what 4 letters to highlight.

ProfessorMaisie

I,B,E,Y looks right (as does the holiday... which falls on a specific date in the list).
