a thoroughly bad lot.

92. In the past you had a horse but were interested in Peter's. 4
59. Ronald took part in a crooked deal with the robber 7
I know its early but could anyone give me a clue for these please? They're driving me mad! Thanks.

[teacher1]

59 A short Ronald + deal ........ anagram !

[esmeralda]

Thanks, teacher 1, I was stuck on Leonard but couldn't think why. Now I see it all.

[Goofy]

I'm surprised teh AB police (or is it just Rainbow Quizzes) haven't got onto you for this!

The one that is driving me crazy is 85. I've got 84 but it doesn't seem to help

[Goofy]

and I've just found that someone has tried to give me a clue on a post I made earlier.
Now bookmarking them which will help me to look!

[teacher1]

The answer I've got for 85 has two words, but the answer requires only one word ! :-(
The only connection between 84 and 85 seem to be the word 'Bob'

[Goofy]

umm
don't normally find they have number of words wrong - unless yours could be one owrd?

Bob as in shilling? or duck?

[teacher1]

I get a lot of you on my TV Damian666 ........ I think it's called interference ! Please go away !

[teacher1]

Asking for help is not the same as asking for answers sprinter53 ! Extra clues do not do any harm. If you don't like it ..... stay off this posting !

[teacher1]

............. and the more people who send off answers ..... the more money the charity gets. That is the main thing !!! It's not who wins ....... it's raising of money for important causes !!!!

[teacher1]

My apologies esmeralda for moaning on your posting. If you have any more Qs ..... I will help you if I can.

[mtsgirl]

Teacher 1 I've got 85 at last there is a connection with Robin Hood don't know how much help that is but the last 3 words of the question helped me to eventually get it. Still haven't got 92 ....Peter's or 59...Ronald

[mtsgirl]

Oops, sorry about the lack of punctuation in that last reply. If I don't get it right I'm afraid Teacher 1 won't help me with clues. We have to stick together against the disapproving moaners!!

[mtsgirl]

Think I've got 77 correct answers now so still a long way to go but am determinedly plodding on. Wasn't enjoying this one as much as others over the years I've done them but now I've got into it I'm hooked again.

92 is a really good clue. You must split it after the word "you". Use Chambers extensively.

Am down to my last two - 31 and 65. Any clues much appreciated. In 31, I assume that neat is crossword speak for cow which gives an answer beginning with R but I cannot connect it with second class player. In 65, I assume we are talking about sea roads, which might give eg buccaneer or privateer but I think I am barking up the wrong tree.

[FoxLee2]

Badger4 - the answer doesn't begin with R but the answer means what you are thinking of, I believe. Concentrate on the 'second-class player'

Can you give any clues to No.84 - Old Bob and his Crocodile? Thanks

[Goofy]

84) try looking at clue 10

[Goofy]

65) is what it says on the box!
A dance round and

[Badger4]

Thanks to Goofy and FL2. I'll work on it. As Goofy says, the 10 in 84 refers to clue 10.
