[mallyh]

[cashier]

2 Sicily

[Sam1960]

3. Suggested "Bannockburn" last night if letter count should be (11)

[mallyh]

3 could only find bannockburn

[DTCwordfan]

he/she wanted to be double-sure, cashier
2 Los Angeles....

[DTCwordfan]

sorry wrong letter number, 3 Bannockburn....

[cashier]

Galasalmon said she checked with someone who knows setter and it was 10. One of her threads yesterday I think.

[Rascal123]

(1) and (4) are similar but different wording ...I wondered if it was a mistake or a trick question...

[Rascal123]

Cashier and Mallon....explain how you got Sicily....guess that’s what you meant Mallyh...

[cashier]

Just icily with an s

I was going to offer Scilly but can't have it without Isles of before or isles after. That would be chilly minus the h and add an s. Still does't explain lose the direction though.

[galasalmon]

1 and 4 are the same setter has said they apologise .but can’t get anything but Bannockburn for 20.

[galasalmon]

Friend has just texted me to say she made a mistake and it is 20/ 11 letters so Bannockburn must be right.
