Thanks tommy.toon. I don't quite see the wordplay and the "j" would be the first letter of 2 down the clue for which is: long-tailed duck, say. (5). I would then have J?I?E for that clue. Any ideas?
Thanks ubasses - this makes it clear. I was just about to correct myself to say that the first letter of 2 down would be "o" not "j" when I got your answer. So 2 down is now O?I?E. The clue is Long-tailed duck, say. (5). I still can't work this one out.
