phizzy,
If tormentil is correct, untwine cant be.
Is the xword a lot more difficult this week..
Bottom laft is giving me trouble.
Thanks for answers.

I think 34d is recessional

[phizzy]

i'll stick with untwine and forget tormentil - i don't have the times jumbo so i am doing it blind as it were - hope i am helping and not hindering - god loves a trier

[tobyw]
