Sorry!! I've put my query in the wrong area. How can it be swapped to the Crossword area please?

[hibiscusrose]

Thanks dd67
Even in the wrong area!!!

As it's a cryptic, I like to know how the answer relates to the question.
I know the real question must be 'point' but where does Paris come into it please?

regards
Ann

3 gasp for breath = PANT, girl's = HER => PANTHER [big cat]

[bibblebub]

since dd67 hasn't responded yet:

is in Paris = EST [i.e. the french word for 'is']
but without a = put that outside of A

E a ST

[hibiscusrose]

Thank you bibblebub & dd67

I never would have worked the East one out at all!
Also, I feel a bit silly as I really should have worked the 'panther' one out.
Thank you both
Ann
