17. ????D . . . . saD end

[johnalex]

29. ?ON?? . . . . ON getting into

[athenae]

17) the 5 letter answer means 'Dignified'

abbrev for an 'old relative + D

29) the 5 letter answer is a word for ' more than one bargains for (think basic salary +)

'ON' getting 'into' three letter word for 'public transport'

68) the 9 letter answer is a word meaning 'an insignificant person'

'is wedged in a ...... crowd and I prattle on regardless'

(the answer word is 'hidden' in the clue

Magic1 ..... re 68)

julesy says �.... and found the third in the reverse dictionay �

[julesy]

68. I put in "insignificant person" and a list came up, and there was a word that is in the sentence. I then put the word in another dictionary and that showed, an insignificant person and a term for money.
Keep trying.


One Look Reverse Dictionary

Good luck.
