Help - I now have O - F - S - A - E - for 1 across, since I used your idea of FRONT for 2 down.....OFF something???? Driving me crazy lol

[Lie-in King]

1a Made unintelligible (10)

Obfuscated

[factor-fiction]

what is the clue for 2d? Is it 2 words?

[factor-fiction]

Okay- OBFUSCATED

[Lie-in King]

Hi factor - treetops gave 2d - Front, for "Boldness of manner"

[CurlyLox]

Factor30 and Lie-in thank you thank you....

[CurlyLox]

Now all I need is 38 across which I thought should be RELOCATE but if that is so then 36 down is wrong, I have MEDIOCRITY and the D clashes

[factor-fiction]

Thanks lie-in king. My mistake- I just read the bit that said "2 down.....OFF something??

[Lie-in King]

38a Secondee

Hi CurlyLox & welcome to AB!

It's always nice to include the full clues, numbers of letters & any you've placed, so that people without the puzzle can more readily help you.

Also, if you begin your own thread next time, it's more certain to be noticed on the front page - thanks! :-))

[CurlyLox]

Thanks Lie-in King, sorry if I barged in , I just came straight in from google on the direct line ;o

[Lie-in King]

No problem, Curly - you're here now :-)

[CurlyLox]

Indeed I am, and most grateful for the help, all done now, can I help anyone else in return? otherwise see y'all next time xx
