14 Down

[Hussar]

Thank you Boxtops and Hellbent.

Relapse is fine but for 14 down I've got E-O----T-E which I think are Ok so neither of the suggestions will fit - unless I'm being thicker than usual!

What's the clue?

Hi Hussar,
I'm sure someone can help you but I can't as I don't know what theclue is or which crossowrd you are referring to.
Did you know you can send these thank you messages and follow up questions simply by replying to your own original question. That way it keeps everything in one thread.

I can't find a 10 letter words with those letters in those positions

I think someone answered it as Croquette. How do you get the E?

Yesterday you said the clue was:
"It sounds like big reptile consumed savoury cake (9 letters)"
It looks as if you are showing 10 letters today.
Anyway teh previous answer of croquette sounds right (sounds like croc ate)
