Thank you Lady Alex.
Any thoughts on 16d ??

[ladyalex]

Not a clue for 16d. Sorry.

Not really seeing Sofa for 12a either...I can see so-fa are notes, but don't get the 'crash site' bit :-((

[dave1948]

Lady Alex you are very helpful.

People crash out on the sofa. I think it's right

[ladyalex]

I see what you mean now for sofa...

Still pondering 16d. Any other letters for it yet ?

[ladyalex]

16d looks like it should be Senior senor + i =superior in rank

But that makes all of your letters wrong :-((

[ladyalex]

Also senior =old

[dave1948]

Thank you again Lady Alex. I don't think senior is the right answer. I have completed most of the crossword and will set up a nther set please see if you can help

[ladyalex]

I'll do my best, dave :-))

[ladyalex]

I think Euphemia has it on the other thread!

16d =rancid
