Hello peeps,

Only 2 to go now...

21D Hanging is well prefixed here (6) E _ R_ _ _
25A Genuine wrinkle for listener (5) _ _ K_ A

Also, got 16D but can anyone explain the clue - is Mar a girls name??

Thanks
Chris

25a Pukka (sounds like 'pucker')

[Chree]

Thanks....that makes 21D E_R_P_

It must be Europe I think but can't see why

[Lie-in King]

I want to say -

21d Europe , but I'm not sure why...(?)

Europe. Hanging rope...EU europe prefix. Well thats what i thought anyway.

[Chree]

Sounds good....not one of his better clues.... but it's going in!

Thanks!

[Lie-in King]

21d europe = hanging/rope + eu/greek for well
