ISPY, Last week's answer given as 17. I have 16!!! I have checked and checked answers and my spelling and still get only 16. How is that. Can anybody else check and/or give an explanation of how count is done please?

There were 17 in last week's Ispy, you must have made a spelling error. There's no great science to it, check your spelling is correct and then count the I's and enter answer in Ispy box

I know that it is easy I am not a twp--but unfortunately I had put down RODEO Ga Ga instead of RADIO-----and checked nd checked---but still id not see it. Anyhow thanks and good luck today!!!!!!

I knew you weren't a tw.t but the only way of doing count is check spelling, good luck with your crossword today, you would go crosseyed looking for them I agree, I often get different amount of letters each time I count.
