backpackers looks like being hostellers but your P would be wrong

shaneystar

23a Phlegm

kev100

18d could be slapdash

shaneystar

24d I would say stain.
18d Slapdash?

kev100

16a impression, Dint would fit up to now

ipek

So sorry - I had checked my other answers but obviously not carefully enough!

16A. Is VIEW - thank you ipek - my T should have been W!

20A. HOSTELLERS looks good - so thank you kev100, my P WAS an S!

23A. PHLEGM is definitely correct - thanks shaneystar - once again I had an E instead of an M!

29A. Thumb, tie and hiccup (5) correct blanks are: ----H?

18D. Slipshod, disorderly - With phlegm being correct, it makes the blanks: (8) -L-H-A--

24D. Blemish, stigmatise (5) - With phlegm being correct, it makes the blanks: E-I--

Thanks for all your help so far! And sorry for my earlier mistakes!

shaneystar

This makes 29A Hitch

ipek

18D is looking more like slapdash - check the 'p'?

ipek

sorry - (DUH) check the 'h'

Question Author

Yes, I agree with slapdash, but that would mean that the P would be where the H is in PHLEGM. Can you think of another word for MATTER COUGHED UP? It would be -P---M? Just realised..... it's SPUTUM isn't it?

ipek

You got it!! What does that leave us for 24D?

shaneystar

which must make24d taint
Hooray!!!

mazzyk

Question Author

So then the last one is BLEMISH, STIGMATISE - it's now T-I-T - that will be TAINT I think?

mazzyk

Question Author

Really appreciate all your help - hope I can repay the favour some day!
