Hi
Sorry for delay have been away

34. the answer is remises - premises without the p

50. Common place - answer is a synonym for commomplace which is also a vehicle. Nothing to do with place names.

any clues for 55.

Thanks Jenny
AS for the swimmer I thought I had the answer - Buster "clarence" crabbe but clarence is 8 letters not 7 so am still searching.
Crabbe was British. Look for names of American fish.
Sorry, the Crabbe that you referred to was an American film star, I thought you meant Comm. "Buster" Crabbe the Royal Navy frogman.
Thanks for the hint on the american swimmer.
Question Author
Buster Crabbe was a long distance swimmer. He starred in films with Randolph Scott, who I love to see. Is there a connection? Maybe a film??
The connection to the question is a type of fish.

Thanks Razza, give us a search clue??

A dog can be colloquially called this.

Razza

Thanks very much have now got it.
Question Author
Thanks Razza, am thinking about the dog one
Question Author

can anybody recommend a good book that might have answers to Q like these in Overland Odyssey.


Thanks also to Razza for the dog suggestion.


any tips for Crazy Reason to travel

Razza, I'd be interested to know about such a book too. This is my second attempt at completing a Rainbow Quiz and I'm finding it really hard. I'm starting to feel rather stupid! I think I need to get some practice in answering similar types of questions.
Whoops, I meant Badly, not Razza. Sorry! I'm going to have a lie down in a darkened room now.
Badly

Think of another word for crazy (4 letters) + another word for travel and you will have the answer.

No you are not going off the RAILS another clus as to type of vehicle needed.

Keep doing them and you will eventually end up the same as some of us. Addicted.
The only thing I can recommend to be able to do this quiz,is practice on cryptic crosswords,I have been doing this quiz about 8 years now and got all 100 correct four times,my lowest score has been 96,which is not too bad,I suppose,but I do quite a few cryptic crosswords and stick at them till they are done.Good luck with the quiz.
Question Author

Thanks Razza sounds encouraging. How do you cope when there appears to be more than one answer.. The up train.. for instance, do you think there is only ONE correct answer to this.. I can think of at least two

When you have 2 or more answers,look even closer at the clue,sometimes you have to do a bit of cross reference,generally works out in the end.
Question Author
Razza.. Are you saying that there is only one answer for the up-train in your opinion??
There is only one correct answer,but it is one I have got to do a bit of cross referencing on,Ive got my probable answer,but there is also a probability of another answer,but I am leaning 80-20 in favour of one of them,but there is another 4 weeks to decide.
