33, 37, 40 & 43 contain wrong letters. An answer destined for 26 down was entered in 25 down by mistake.

JimJools, I think you've misspelt no31

[JoolsTwo]

Yes you're quite right quinie - I've left the last 'e' off.

[quinie]

Is it not entetee? I can't put in the accents!

[JoolsTwo]

Yes quinie it is - Sorry. I have it in my grid correctly. The accents don't really matter in a crossword.

[quinie]

Why did you give me those sites, JimJools ?

I'm answering knittingrebel's questions, not asking them.....

Or rather I've stopped answering them as he cannot be bothered to trawl the internet for them...or so he said.
