Sorry - been watching the cricket and didn't refresh!

[bobbinwales]

Forgot about the 'drop a letter' instrucion.... think you meant S not M for 29 neverycrossword

[bobbinwales]

Maybe that was a different crossword sorry

[bobbinwales]

So not having succeeded( S) means drop the S so no special instruction applies

[bobbinwales]

Back to the cricket though...game on

[Neveracrossword]

Bobbinwales, yes, I meant drop the 's', not having succeeded - I hadn't had my first coffee at that point, so my brain was still sluggish.

[bobbinwales]

Cheers... mines always sluggish these days coffee or no coffee. Don't think I'd of got that one

hanks, Bobbinwales. I did this puzzle on Thursday, so it was just a matter of remembering the answers (if not the correct parsing!)
