After having spent nearly 24 hours solid on this(slight exageration but not too much)please can anyone help with a couple to get me going....



3a Growing family of jazz fan, one aged about 100 ?A???????

7a Cab first to leave a line, going in rotation ?????

Thanks very much

7a Rabat ....(c)AB in RAT

Can you confirm the number of letters in 3a?

I am thinking along the lines of Catkin etc .

[callyatl]

Hello and thanks for your help, Love Catkin but there are 9 letters and the second I am pretty sure is A.

[mazie]

probably miles off the mark but I'll have a go

Cat+one+re+c = Concreate

[Palustris]

7 Down (not across) surely is Axial from (T)axi plus a l(line) and it means in rotation

[callyatl]

Thanks sure 7d is correct at axial
