hi . I'm afraid the Generalist crossword (that I was seeking advice on yesterday) proved too hard for me. I managed quite a lot but I think you need to be a bit more experienced than I am to tackle that one. though I shall have another look next week if I have time. . but I turned to my old favourite, the times jumbo cryptic. I've just finished it but a couple of clues don't quite get there so I'd be grateful, as ever, for help.
46d being germ free , say, extended players' lives
I think the answer is " asepsis" (though it could also be "asepses"). That's the germ free bit but why?
37ac In general duck passes for gander. "Look see fits and that is one way to say gander But I don't really get the working.19ac Girl's watch in red from Latin America. With the letters I have "Chloe" fits but why"

I lose them in a long passage being partially sighted.

Sorry, don't change just for me - simply nice to give each clue some space.

You do well with little help really, keep it up.

As ever, you are really kind. And the good news is that His Nibs will be coming home for the holidays in a few weeks time. I miss him so much!
