Good morning. Still struggling with the last few clues. Can you confirm/help, please. 7dn Though clumsy, it does hold the coop up (5 ltrs) i-e-t (inept?) 5dn Plans to stop in. Isn't going out (7ltrs) i-t-n-- (intends?) 17ac Try doggedly to be let into from the start (7ltrs) --r-t-h (scratch?) 21ac Loaded, is not stable in the water (7ltrs) r-l-i-g (rolling?) Still on a learning curve.......... Many thanks. Four Clubs.
another name for coop is pen, pen is inbetween the word it which forms the word inept- so you are correct :-)
Intends looks right, too :-)
Scratch is also correct ;-)
Not sure about the last one, so wait here for a cryptic expert. Like you, am also still learning :-)
Warmest wishes this morning , Bea :-)
