If it's from this morning's paper.... check the date!

[dreamer56]

OMG!! Of course! Thanks Neveracrossword!

I haven't seen the crossword, dreamer56 - but I'd heard of it.

[dreamer56]

Having said that. I get 'April Fool', but the bottom two clues? Is that a saying ? Or adage? I'm now going to look very stupid....

27 ac Exceptionally peculiar English copper doing a bunk, now not here (5) - April

26 ac WC Fields originally taken the wrong way as twit misplaced (4) - Fool

[Mamyalynne]

Lake in middle of Cheltenham enveloping a house - Tahoe

Vehicle is guided-one lost astray (4) - Sled


Ignore the numbers on the others

Thanks, Mamya. I didn't know the details, but I knew there was swapping (of clue parts) involved!

[Mamyalynne]

I've possibly botched it a bit, but you get the gist I think.

[dreamer56]

Oh, of course. So misplaced clue is TAHOE, and....SLED?
Thanks Mamyalynne
