Hi Krypton27, I too am struggling this week. I don't have either of the clues you're looking for. I have the letters you have but I don't even understand the instructions in the little box at the top.

I found out that St.Custards is a fictional school but still can't solve the clue.
Question Author
Thanks anyway. I dont understand the little box either and some of the clues are hard to fathom. How about 'City: e.g.?
!
I think that's Cologne because after city is a colon to which you then add eg.
Question Author
Excellent!
Thanks, but that's my only triumph. I don't have 5a; 11a; 14a; 19a; 22a; & 24a and I won't bore you with the down clues!
go on,bore us!
Question Author
Ive got 'whoobub' for 19 ac. No others...
Lol. I really think I should try a bit more on my own first but I'll give you one clue down, 7d. Sets of 10 - Set D &c (7). I think the 3rd letter may be C.
8a looks skools backways
could be decimal !
Thanks Krypton, don't know the word, is it from a poem?
Wee calf, it must be looks, only has 5 letters but thank you for your reply.
Thanks Wallacia, it looks so simple now, since you've told me!!
Sorry put in an extra s it skool backways looks .St custards skool its called
Weecalf, I only discovered about St. Cuthberts today and I bet I read it as 'skool' and it just didn't register. Thanks again.
Question Author
5 ac is 'child' chi is greek for ten (X) and ld = lord
Krypton, you're brilliant, thanks for that - keep it up.
Question Author
Dont think its decimal - how about 'decades'?
Then what about the goddess we know?
Could be decades but I haven't found the goddess yet. Watch this space.....maybe.
Hi K27 - it really is a stinker this week - the only other ones I have are
22a - osteoma (anag of to some a)
24a - erato (muse)
7d - dectets (set of 10 musicians)
12d - woesome (only thing I can get to fit!!)

still haven't finished

HW
Question Author
Thanks HW
Had some of these but not the dectets . Just identified 'gutta' for the drop ball so we only (!) have the goddess and the country (india?) still unsolved.

Were you at Firhill on Saturday?
