Once you’re happy click “Build Title” and the information should populate the Title field. Fill in the final required details of your question as you normally would, and click submit.

Hello Matakari
I'm happy to help again, but only hints! You do need to practise on less demanding, albeit quite cryptic crosswords. I'd suggest Telegraph cryptic, monday to saturday and Telegraph Toughie tuesday to friday.
Again I'll bookmark this thread!
Ciao
