I suppose 1ac is DUMAS - French novelist is member of elected council? Forget it. and 19ac is EVAN - Girls's name or boy's name.
If so could I please have the answers to 2dn Early morning in passing frosts (4) MAT? and 4dn Special appetizer but not with local closed (4) SHE?
I'm also missing 24dn Time one set about drunk keeling over - like this?(5) A??LT and 26ac Reverse bottom sheet (4) ?AR?
Thanking you.
Hi Kayakamina
Can you explain wordplay for SHED at 4 DOWN - I thought it might be SHET (an archaic form)
CLUE: Special appetizer but not with local closed (4)
SHET is a regional description of CLOSED but cannot now remember where I got it from The rest of my working out was correct so the clue makes sense. I agree, Kayakamina is brilliant at answers and can usually be relied on to come up trumps.
