Not surprised you are struggling TS, these clues are not great!

[Blackiequine]

I think this is a great quiz, manageable and not too high-fallutin'. I got it yesterday and have just one to get. This is the best I've ever managed, not being the sharpest tool in the box!

[johnalex]

Thanks TS, always pleased to assist. Good luck with your remainders.
