Having trouble with 6a. Flutter about, hopeless in sandstorm (6) T?B?AD. Think that I must have gone wrong again.

[Lie-in King]

Tebbad (a sandstorm) - bet (flutter, about) + bad (hopeless)

zita-green, have you thought of trying Chambers Reference Online? There's a 30 day free trial to see if it works for you.

In this case, if you use the English Dictionary and type T?B?AD in the Search box, TEBBAD and the definition of sandstorm is the only word that comes up. It's like Chambers Word Wizard with the definitions included. Can save a lot of time. Just an idea.

Cheers
