Thanks cashier and nevereacrossword
Happy New Year to you all.
I am back with requests for explanations ( or maybe corrections)
About to put in requirement for grape. (6) I have ?u?c?t . The only grape i can find (i know very little about Wines to say the least) is muscat but I cannot explain.
The other is While at school, keenly having time for Newton? Not all the time. I have i?t?r?i?t?n?l?. So I guess the answer is I ntermittently. In term I see but not the rest.
I should be really grateful ( as always) for advice
Steven
Muscat - about = ca (circa) with must (requirement) around
Hi Steven & Happy New Year :-)

Muscat - 'ca' (circa; about) (in) 'must' (requirement)
Intermittently - 'in term', then in 'iNtently' (keenly), change the 'N(ewton)' for 't(ime)'
It's always obvious when you explain it! But,as you might imagine, I wrestled with it for yonks and couldn't see it.
Thank you both. SWMBO will be relieved that I can now pursue other things. Like studying.
Bless you!
Steven
