57ac PERU (Sal) Any luck on 18 ac? Is it ORCA Or 20ac. take a part for instance. It’s a result of fracturing an upper limb joint. ?O?E? Or 10dn. Being wild, a large New World herbivore gets in a state, though not an American state. [I’ve got BOSNIA, but if ORCA is correct, the letters are ?O?A?A, so BOSNIA is wrong.

Or 10dn. Being wild, a large New World herbivore gets in a state, though not an American state. [I’ve got BOSNIA, but if ORCA is correct, the letters are ?O?A?A, so BOSNIA is wrong.
clue for 18A please?
Bosnia seems ok, anag of a bison
18ac. In Acapulco or Cancun, they look happy when they see a WASP Yank go away. (4) ???N
Question Author
Thanks Vinpaul. Yes ORCA is answer to 18A. And elliemay1 the clue was "In Acapulco OR CAncun, they look happy when they see a WASP Yank go away."
Question Author
Vinpaul - the answer to 20Ac is BOWEL (anagram of elbow). 10D still has me puzzled. Hoping some brains trust out there will crack that one.
Thanks Geraldo50. Help appreciated.
Question Author
Elliemay1 - you're spot on. 10D has to be BOSNIA. I think ORCA is wrong for 18Ac. My apologies.
Question Author
Just one left now 18A - In Acapulco or Cancun, they look happy when they see a WASP Yank go away. ???N.
Might that be Wasp Tank instead of Wasp Yank??
Question Author
Elliemay1 - It's WASP Yank (I double-checked)
Ok, thanks Geraldo. I just thought that, as the Y and T are next to each other on the keyboard, maybe the setter had mistyped.
I think I’ve solved 18ac ( in Acapulco or Cancun, they look happy when they see a WASP Yank go away (4) ???N)
Could it be GRIN - GRINGO (minus GO)
That looks good Vinpaul - well done :-)
Question Author
Vinpaul - you're a star many thanks. GRIN is the answer. Thanks to you and all others who helped out with this.
