Thanks Athenae. Sorry - this is the very first time I've used the site and wasn't aware of "protocol". I appreciate your letting me know and will always give the clue in future!
Oh dear! Was I so obviously "green"? Glad you don't take offence.
Am now onto the Saturday Cryptic. 2d "water having awkward rise in blender"; 12a "a mother he did not have" are proving difficult. Have you done those today?
Hi barbrajay ... it is just your name that is shown in green, and from this it can be seen that you are a new user. After two weeks you will become old and grey like the rest of us!
