23D Only has a jumble of letters - not an actual clue!

[Captain2]

well, what are those letters?

[dannyk13]

Reeded, reefed,reefer, reeked,reeled,reeves,
Take your pick.

The jumble will likely be an anagram of another word...

eg llesmde - smelled bad - Reeked

Hi golddust - rather than posting a new thread, you can bump this one into Latest Posts - as I've just done with this post.

Can you post the jumbled letters as Captain asked, please?

23D the letters in the clue are: r e e i e d. The letters from previous clues are: R?E?E? (6)

[Mamyalynne]

letters are

r e e l e d

I'll take it that it was an l not an i as I thought - could have been more distinct. Thanks for your input.
