Julie, just looking at the puzzle now - the name fits!

Ok, 'Reinstate'; 'Emend'; 'Intended'... Ahead (?) Not getting it yet... x

[JULIEWOOLIE]

Hi, get ahead =further but not the rest?Julie

[Lie-in King]

Ahead - 'Further on', yes - why 'each joined' - am I going mad?.... Why can't I see this?...

[JULIEWOOLIE]

ea could mean each but then your left with ahd?Julie

[Lie-in King]

I'll say this for you Julie - you know how to wake a guy up!...

I'm seeing the 'ea' - like you, I can't see the the rest of it...

AArrrrgggghhh!!!!

[JULIEWOOLIE]

oh k well done! julie

[Lie-in King]

Hi kayakamina - once again you stop the the headache from getting too bad!

Would you agree that it's not the best clue ever?...

[kayakamina]

Not a good one! It took me a bit before I saw the relevance of 'joined'

Cheers K

[Lie-in King]

Glad it's not just me! Coming to the end of the crossword - lots of really good clues - what a shame to spoil it with that one...

[JULIEWOOLIE]

Agree a bit of a dodgy one! Thanks for everyones help Julie
