A plinth

[Mamyalynne]

Julia can you be more precise with your enquiry.

Danny have you a link to that??

[dannyk13]

I thought it was a straight forward question as to what a socle is.

[Mamyalynne]

Well yes but which clue in which Lancelot, never mind - well done but have you a link to the definition of the word that leads you to Plinth.

[Baldric]

danny, it's SOCIE

[Mamyalynne]

Ah, hang on SOCLE, well that explains it, thank you.

[dannyk13]

I presumed it wa a typo as I do not know if the word socie exists. Mamyalynne the clue for14 down in todays Daily Mail quick crossword is socle.

[Mamyalynne]

Well we are either all at cross purposes or is not yesterdays Lancy, sorry Danny was not having a dig at you :-)

[dannyk13]

Not for one moment did I think you were Mamyalynne.

[sandyRoe]

Isn't there a Socie hall St in Glasgow?

[Mamyalynne]

Sauchiehall Street

naughty Sandy

[dannyk13]

Did you mean Sauchiehall Street?

[Baldric]

for those who havn't bothered with the link a SOCIE is;
//One of the posh kids with trendy, adult-approved clothing, good grades and a fondness for weak pop-culture, American, late 70s - early 80s//.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes Baldric I did see that but apart from Viz and Private Eye, is rare for a mainstream crossword setter to use the urban dictionary - that may change in the future who knows.

[dannyk13]

I think this thread has run its course

[Baldric]

Silly me, not having the x-word I relied on the OPer, will I never learn?
;o)
