You've Got To Laugh Haven't You?
News0 min ago
I asked the question; Daisy's transport could be a sports car (3,6) T_ _, _E_T_ _ I got given the answer The Beetle but it doesn't seem to fit with the rest of my crossword. I was thinking Daisy might be the cow not the flower. Any ideas? I think the last letter could be an R. I got the R from; Machine dispensing liquid waste by gravity or pressure (6,8) S_U_(E?)_ _P_E_D_R which I think is Slurry Spreader. I also asked; Personal fodder from the face (4-4,6) S_L_-_ _ _ _,_ _ _ _ _E Someone suggested Self-help course? Thought it could be an anagram of Personal fodder? Might have an I in if inhibitor is answer to question below which would mean it couldn't be either. Any thoughts? (Half the letters are the start letters of the questions below)
I also have a couple more questions just to finish off the crossword.
Gorse and whin said to be pelts (5) _ _R_Y
Former thespian demands his pound of flesh (7) _ _A_T_R
Stuff that stops a plant growing (9) _ _H_B_T_R (is it inhibitor?)
Scope of the morning morsel (5) _ _B_T
Begin journey when lighting blue touchpaper (3,3) _E_,(E?)_ _ (the 2nd E comes from the beetle question so may not be right, think last letter could be F)
I don't understand some of the questions at all, please could you tell me how you get to the answers. I've only just started doing cryptic crosswords.
Sorry, it's a bit like an essay! Your help is much appreciated. Thanks!
