Question Author
thanks - i'm nearly finished it
still struggling with:
7d Dance without a course (5) ?hu??
36a ....turned up and behaved riotously (6) so???? soured?
I think 7d is " Rhumb"
.. i.e. variant spelling of Rumba = Rhumba = dance without "a" = Rhumb = course navigated by a vessel.
Are you sure of your S in 36a ? From the way you have given the clue it looks as if it follows on from the previous one. Does that clue refer to 'and' which could mean the answer to 36 may be Looted ? ie too<<
Question Author
the s is from a different clue from the answer Jambes, which is one of the unclued lights all pertaining to armour or weaponry - i got Jambes from ?a?b?? - so maybe its wrong.
36a does follow from 35a:
35a: Further, amateur orchestra...
36a... turned up and behaved riotously (6)
