thanks yapisle that helps a lot. I still have 11d and 36a & 42a to find, so some more help wouldn't go amiss ..... please
Do you want answers or just clues?
I find this site a big help

Hi Jules how are you ? Clues would be really great - I have a feeling I'm on the wrong track with 7a I thought it was ecstatic or something close to it, though I knew 10d should start with S. Perhaps we'll sort that one out first ?? tia Steff
7a) rapture = ecstasy BUT, you need a very similar spelt-word from the greek etymology origins of this word
10d) answer is above, in first posting
You are on the right tract with 7a.
Question Author
WOW that's one good site - thanks Jules have found a couple but would you give me the correct spelling for 25d please
Question Author
sorry, thanks yapisle, I noted 10d and I'll go brush up my Greek
with 36a look for a word also meaning to - come again at intervals - 42a sounds like it has something to do with dancing. I hope that helps and doesn't confuse you even more. :-) - Just been chatting to my brother-in-law in your neck of the woods - Salisbury anywhere near you?
Question Author
cook's calling, dinner's ready so I'm out of here for a bit, but will be back later, thanks to you both for your help Steff

No, we're the other side of Adelaide, Morphett Vale is down the south coast, close to the sea, great for walking the dogs and swimming. I found 42 on the site you suggested, that's a beauty !!! see you soon !! S
Hi Jools ... just looked on this thread and see that you've been on the 'phone to my home town! ... time for late breakfast now ............(S)
Your an Ozzie are Sarumite - what brought you to GB?
........... no, I only glanced at your posting Jools, and saw you had mentioned Salisbury, didn't realise you meant the other side of the world!!
Salisbury in Adelaide....... Just wondered if it was anywhere near seekeerz but they are on the other side.
Question Author
G'day sarumite, I've just finished dinner and back to work on this puzzle - my two helpers have given some great leads so I might get it finished tonight.
Question Author
