82 "leaders" signifies the first letters of the preceding words + a. The answer is a vehicle and a Fijian toothache remedy.
Catfish No 95 Bones_hake-r = ? Have you an answer for 99 ??
Catfish My last post refers to clue The Up-Train
Question Author

Magic1 my answer for 99 is funicular railway - that was the first answer I came up with (despite the starlight express debate) so I have decided to stick with it. When I googled "up-train" FR is the answer it came up with too.


Thanks for 95, thanks too to kayakamina and mahonia. Finally I can send this off!

Thanks Catfish. Ref 99 I wonder if any of us have found the right answer. Neither of the most popular answers seem to be Cryptic ! Can you confirm Clue 93. "It is used for invalid reasons" as Wheelchair. It seems too obvious ? Thanks
Question Author
Wheelchair was my answer too - I don't think all clues on this quiz are cryptic, some of them seem a bit more straightforward ... unless I have missed the point with a lot of them!
They are not all cryptic,some are,some are easy,some are anagrams,a bit of a mixture which probably makes it more enjoyable.Good luck.
