Did the compiler mistake a h for n (or n for h) when he wrote in his answers?

vermouth and conference both seem so right!

[El Blobbo]

What are the clues??

[Murielmci]

It is a drink - Italian Vermouth

Meeting to iron things out? - Press Conference

[Murielmci]

the n in conference and the h in vermouth is where they intersect.

Both those answers look fine to me, especially if other answers fit in with them. I have actually seen that first clue before and the answer was Italian Vermouth then too (as in 'Gin & It').

[Murielmci]

Yes, as I said I think the compiler may have read an n for an h! How we submit it goodness knows!

[sgeandhu]

I'm also with you on this...vermout(h) and confere(n)ce MUST be correct..
however, don't get 18ac "bartenders knock back endlessly on Sunday"...must be tapsters...knock back (pat=tap) Sunday = s ...then???

I put both h and n in the square but I'm sure either will be accepted.
