19 Answers
A bit of tidying up to do today. 19 across. Clue: What could be dreariest spouting on broadcast? (7). I have: T?R?D?S. I thought TIRADES but can't quite see why; anagram nearly? 27 across. Clue: Single beer bottles available (5). I have ??O?E. I thought ALONE for SINGLE and I can see ALE but can't quite be satisfied with it. 26 down. Clue: Without rooms for treating sick pupils (4). I have ?A?S. Finally, 24 across. Clue: Excellent stock including Little Women (5). I have: S?E?L. I thought maybe SWELL as in excellent but it's very much an American word. It's also a word you hardly ever hear these days. Amos and Andy, Lucille Ball and the rest could hardly string a sentence together without something being "swell". I wonder why it's out of fashion? Your thoughts and enlightenment please.
