dictionary (its very good & helpful - good to add
to you favourites) and they came up with Hank.
(I thought Hank was the yank in America)

tizzy to about 6pm

astgran,
JCL53
for your help and good luck to you all with your entries.

[poortony]

Sorry katburd I see I missed you, I had a visitor called,
Good luck you deserve to win, you worked hard on
that one.

[katburd]

thanks, but I think we all work hard at these daily record crosswords lately,and it is good to get the help when we need it from our AB helpers out there. I'll soon let you know if I win it would be a first .

[JCL53]

Well I wasn't going to say anything but I won it last week !
Had a letter this morning from Scottish Daily and Sunday record .I was all of a quiver ! It was the Funday one .
PS I feel awful really because I don't even live in Scotland :))

[katburd]

I don't think you should feel anything but pleased with yourself, no matter where you live, you could have been up here on holiday for that matter,I was in blackpool a couple of months ago and was disappointed that the funday was not in the record, the newsagent told me they don't get it there, is it only scotland right enough that gets it?

[katburd]

JCL53 and were you up here on holiday or did someone send it to you, see there's the detective coming out on me now, :)
