1. Movables
11.Weather

11 weather

[Captain2]

So, without doubting Big Mac, can we have two 'weather' in a crossword?
(Must admit I've not heard the expression 'above the weather' before).

[scorpiojo]

Under the rainbow??

[Captain2]

souxie - do we have any letters for 10a please?

[Tilly2]

Above the skyline?

[Tilly2]

Above the horizon?

[souxie]

Sorry Captain2 nothing yet.

[BigMac]

Yes, you can have the same word twice.

I believe this crossword has two instances.

'Above the weather' should be correct, as should 'weather'.

BigMac

[fredkins]

I have heard of " under the weather" ??

[BigMac]

10a and 11a use the same word
25a and 26a use the same word

[Captain2]

Never doubted you BigMac - just not a common occurrence.

(sorry for delay in replying - been playing Dad's Taxi - again)

[dannyk13]

10a. Above the horizon?

[Pullman]

[DestressTermly]

I was also puzzles over movables like Pullman immediately above

[Captain2]

Against = Versus = V
