tosh

Neveracrossword

Nonsense... Tosh is Tosh! The answer is Bosh, which also means nonsense. 'Boshta' is Australian for 'good' and you take off the 'ta' (expressing thanks.).

Neveracrossword

Artillery... Les is French for 'the',when referring to a plural.

Estuarine... I've got Tellens, molluscs.

I can see it is ARLES but how? RA backwards is artillery, les is French, but what has ARLES to do with advance locally?

And how does TELLENS fit with the rest of the clue 'being attached to order

doctordolittle

Question Author

ens = abstract being, tell = order, will do nicely.

Any thoughts about ;Pierre....' = answer now is TU?FER

scorpiojo

Tell - order
Ens - being or existence

Chambers gives arles as a Scottish/N. England word for a preliminary payment i.e. an advance

a telfer is a cable car...

Neveracrossword

I wish you'd give numbers - it makes it easier to reply!

28 A. Pierre 's reflection when returning in cable-car (6)
Telfer, a cable-car. It's Reflet, French for reflection, I think, reversed.

Question Author

OK

Still leaves me 'Pierre .....cable car' TU?FER. I might have the U wrong - TELFER is a kind of cable car.

Which means that 'Unproductive scottish island (4)' is NOt 'mull' but something else ?ELL

doctordolittle

Question Author

TELFER - I agree so I have definitely got MULL wrong.

SO my last clue is 26D 'unproductive Scottish island (4)' ?ELL

bibblebub

Yell - is Scottish island and also alternative for yeld which means unproductve

doctordolittle

Question Author

Oooh!!

That is a bit obscure!!

Thanks everyone.

bibblebub

you're welcome (i usually have to refer to the printed dictionary to find some of these more obscure words)
