28a Recreation

[sarumite]

28a Re-enaction (anag)?

[alexanderd]

28 recreation

[boxtops]

Re-enaction

[ladyalex]

28a Looks like an anagram of rte on a nice, but Recreation seems to fit both the clue and your letters better.(To me, anyway...)

[alexanderd]

Thanks LadyA youre a mate!!!

[ladyalex]

We Clubbers must stick together!

[alexanderd]

lol hope you had a good xmas

[boxtops]

There's only one R in the anagram of "RTE on a nice" though.....

[sarumite]

I would agree "chaps" .. hence the question mark on my suggestion! lol

[alexanderd]

Boxtops oops!!!

[ladyalex]

It will be interesting to find out what the answer is. Hope manchesterun posts it when they know it.

Had a good Xmas, thanks, Alexanderd. Son and heir eventually got home after a 25 hour delay in Dublin (snow). Dowager aunt still here , still deaf, so not a quiet Xmas, but good nevertheless. Got the presents I wanted, despite abysmal postal service here.
How about you ?

[alexanderd]

Xmas lunch at Daughters with grandchildren, boxing day at sisters to recover!! Yes had a great time thanks. One of these days I will win one of these computer games against grandson

[ladyalex]

You're quite right, boxtops and sarumite, but I don't see how re-enaction fits the rest of the clue.
Recreation fits the 'for the fun of it ' bit .
Maybe the clue should read 'rte Or a nice reprogramming for the fun of it'

[ladyalex]

Give up now, Alexanderd. You'll never beat the kids at computer games, no matter how young they are.
:-))
Glad you had a good one too.
Don't suppose you'd care for any leftover ham ?

[boxtops]

I read re-enaction = reprogramming....?
