Can anyone help me with a very hard crossword (for me it is) in our local newsaper
4A - Smart Alec - in the Mafia perhaps (4,3) (- I - -/ - - -) 9A - Underlying theme of a work designed to enlighten (7) ( - E - - - - - ) 11A - So to go means you've got the bit between your teeth (6) (R - - - - - ) - is it racing? 6D - By certain actions guarantee an outcome (6) 7D - Deserving of attention now without procrastination (6)
I think 5D - Welcome, when it's hot, and eaten when it's not (3-5) - 'Ice Cream' hence the letters given above
Claud,
Many Thanks - I was going around in circles last night. Did think of Wise Guy but couldn't get anything to fit with it. With your help, I think 6D is ENSURE.
Again many Thanks
