&d Play in Ipswich buburb to please English (10, 5) C?L?F?R?I? S?I?H. California Swich? California Smith (river)? I think it is a football clue, but not in my league!

[Claud.Butler]

California suite?

[crockshard]

But I am sure it ends in 'h', not 'e'...

[Claud.Butler]

"...to please English." Suit E?
Haven't got 25a yet so not absolutely sure.

[Claud.Butler]

25a Pungent?

[crockshard]

Sorry, I was rude enough to post a question and then go out for the evening... I have 25a as 'potshot/pot's hot', (which I was happy with:)...if pungent, can see the 'punt' (speculate), but how does the 'nge' in the middle relate to dope?

[Claud.Butler]

Pun-gen-t.
Gen and dope are both slang words which can mean information.

Many thanks, C. But 'potshot 'seemed so right! Now I can go to bed in peace. Sweet dreams!
