1A: Come Across (6,4). I have: ?L?G?? UPON

Wanted to start first word with RAM... But surely 2D is Let

Your help will be much appreciated.

alight upon

[donny48]

I think we agree on this one.

[3down]

Thank you Danny, Mamyalynne, Margot and Donny. Your combined help is appreciated.

How does the picture parse to come to 'Alight' please, because I am truly lost on this one.

[MargoTester]

Me too 3 down . A tup is a ram

[dannyk13]

Can't remember the picture and it is not available once puzzle is submitted.

[donny48]

Can you describe the picture ?

[MargoTester]

Picture of a ram with the words good is bad (in a bubble)

[dannyk13]

Margo , is there anything else apart from the sheep's head?

[MargoTester]

That gives the tup in the middle but as to the rest I'm a bit confused with the parsing

[MargoTester]

^ see above Danny x

[dannyk13]

"Good is bad"is a lie so a lie tup on (I think)

[3down]

Margo, the only thing I can see is if one takes out the TUP we are left with "a ligh on, "Good is Bad" is a lie????????

[dannyk13]

Look up 3 down 14.55

[3down]

Yes, Danny. I was typing my observation (correcting typing errors as I go) whilst you were posting your answer. Came up with the same observation as you.

Thanks everyone.

Have a good Christmas 3 down.
