Azed 1819
3 Answers
A new azed crossword today so, before I start on it, can I ask for help with the only clue I couldn't understand from last week?
30ac Nurses making (in sum) 1/10 formerly?
T?NDS
I presume the answer is TENDS=nurses but how does the rest of the clue fit in?

30 TENDS - (ten d., s.) which would be 1/10 in LSD.
so that's why 1/10 was used instead of 'one-tenth' as it means the old one and tenpence. I thought of d=old penny but never got far enough to make the clue work.
