Good morning, interesting Pabulum’s offering this week! Got the quotation and the author quite easily, but am quite unsure about the following clues for which I would appreciate answers, thanks!
ACROSS:
20 The turf, say, found next to yard by Mark (7) : ??TONYM
37 Monarch fills wooden dish (7) : ?E?R?EN
DOWN:
35 Ray’s great fault (4) : ??AM
I think 37A is TERREEN
ER IN TREEN
i assume 35D is BEAM but cannot parse it.
Any ideas on 2D
Nasty double whammy leaving a body in confusion(7)
W???M??
Or 21A in a twist wasting month (5) S??AT
