26 Hetaera.....1 down +a
29 Stucco...Stuck ! + CO (ends of Cameo)
Hello Matakari
I'm happy to help again, but only hints! You do need to practise on less demanding, albeit quite cryptic crosswords. I'd suggest Telegraph cryptic, monday to saturday and Telegraph Toughie tuesday to friday.
Again I'll bookmark this thread!
Ciao
