Guardian Genius - Last Two Parsing Help Please
5 Answers
5a. In the morning, Emma's left in plane (6) = JACKET
(please note this is one of the themed answers and therefore there is no definition in the clue for "jacket".- just the wordplay.). I see "jet" for plane but can't see how the rest = "ack"
24d Farmer with time for a little sex (5) = GILET
(again this is a themed answer and therefore the clue does not have the definition for "gilet", just the wordplay. I can see Giles (farmer) + T(ime) but how does the "S" get deleted?
Many thanks
