However, I am completely stuck on 17dwn Shoots of hemp, I have *a*h*e*h and 19ac Greeting in SA, where I have *b*a*o.

Jellygraph is given in Shorter Oxford as ~"an appliance used for copying documents, etc." I remember it being in "101 Useful Things a Boy Can Do", a book which my grannie had.

Thank you all, Phrontistery looks very impressive. I have added it to my favourites! I have almost every dictionary there is, but forgot to look in the Oxford Shorter for Jellygraph, thereby wasting your time. Sorry
