4d. Fury, finding beer clubs closed? (6) I have ALECTO but where do the beer clubs come in?

5d. Having a big meal but missing the first course (7) I have EASTING. Am i correct?

19d This chapel is the first without Latin circumscription (7) I have ??S?I?E. Help please.

[sarumite]

4d Alecto (one of the 3 Furies) .. Ale (beer) + c(lubs) + to (closed)

5d (F)easting

19d S(ist)ine

[bigphil101]

Yes, Alecto: Beer = Ale; C = Club; To = Closed.

Yes again, Easting = course/direction. Big meal = Feasting minus First letter.

[DSJ]

Very many thanks to both of you.

[marg44]

But why is TO closed?

[JMR27]

'to' as an adverb

I'm certain that both samumite & bigphil101 knew exactly what I meant when I said 'thank you' to them for helping me with the clues. Later postings by marg44 & JMR27 seem irrelevant.
