no

[Tilly2]

My cousin and I had a lovely time doing this together then we came to a grinding halt, right at the end.

It is a great quiz, I agree.

[Mamyalynne]

solve first two words of the clue

[Tilly2]

Didn't think so, Mamya, that why it's still on my list.

Onwards and upwards. Thanks for all the help, everyone.

[Tilly2]

What is the clue to D I S M I S S E D please?

[Mamyalynne]

28 Treatment of the word + Meaning of the word.

[Tilly2]

Space Invaders?

[Tilly2]

I have that for Vavodiders

[Mamyalynne]

What the word in the clue means is the second part of the answer.

[Baldric]

Ah, come on, this is some really good publicity for Hammonds isn't it.

[Mamyalynne]

I'm sure Tilly is trying her best.

[smouse]

So lets say Tilly now solves DISMISSED from the clue so then has a spare answer. What if that answer doesn't answer fit one of the other blanks. This is what happened the other year (not by Tilly I may add)

[Mamyalynne]

No idea, I'm butting out and making some pom poms.

[henbreeder]

I usually print off a spare copy to work on and then it doesn't matter how messy it gets with workings-out. You've got a few weeks left yet to work on it - it's kept me busy for hours!

[Tilly2]

A couple of 'iffy' ones here.

Wicked electric arm...Musical chairs?
Dee, be nimble with wild black sparrow...Blackjack?

[JJ109]

Musical chairs looks good to me - wicked (musical) + electric chair + arm chair

[Tilly2]

Thank you, JJ.

[mallyh]

I would go with just jacks

[JJ109]

Not Blackjack Tilly but on the right lines

split it as
Dee + Be nimble + Wild + Black + Sparrow
What can precede all of these, and how many are there?

[Tilly2]

Unfortunately, 'Jacks' isn't on the answer list, Mallyh.

5 Jacks?
