Thats for 16a, hidden in clue

[bobbinwales]

And I;ll leave the rest for someone else to have a go, LOL

[klazomaniac]

Dotty is short for a Ladies Name. Think of a word that goes after parker (an inquisitive type)

That will give you the name of the author

[klazomaniac]

I've done it again. Sorry.
'A word that goes after Nosey' !

[bobbinwales]

not sure which clue your refering to klaz but did you mean to say NOSEY not Parker?

[bobbinwales]

Am too slow!

[klazomaniac]

Look up Bobbin ^^

I've made quite a few mistakes recently. Having a bad week !

[bobbinwales]

Easy done isnt it

[klazomaniac]

I blame the cold weather ;-)

[lashley]

thanks all

[klazomaniac]

Happy to help lashley. And sorry again for my slip !

[Neveracrossword]

Klazo, well done on being so helpful (although with a little blip). If things go to plan, following the familiar order, it should be a Doc puzzle tomorrow. You may be needed...

[klazomaniac]

Thanks NAC. I am certainly looking forward to what shall be offered tomorrow. As for being 'needed'. I'm having some very bad senior moments of late (and I'm not that senior). So maybe I'll be the one who needs assistance ! :-)

[Neveracrossword]

Thanks, Klazo. I hope the Spectator puzzle doesn't disappoint (me in particular, I'm selfish when it comes to puzzles!). There's always someone - not necessarily the same someone - to help with the Spectator. I'm always happy when new solvers come along.

[klazomaniac]

Lol NAC. ''I'm selfish when it comes to puzzles!'' (I know what you mean) :-)
Hoping for a nice challenge on a subject I may have some knowledge of. Don't think I want to read through 50+ poems by the wrong person again ! :-)

[novalis]

If it is Doc I'm hoping my normal weekly struggles don't last too long.

[klazomaniac]

I know you'll Master whoever we get tomorrow Novalis. Lets just hope it's a pleasure. :-)

[Neveracrossword]

Fingers - and toes - crossed for tomorrow, Klazo and Novalis. As we all have different tastes, maybe one of us will be delighted, the others less so?
