FIERY + MILLAIS (probably).

ProfessorMaisie

...FIERY - def 'Hard' 'weird' FIE + RY(a)'rug'
the unclued 'B M' is a MILL + the animals = AIS

Thank you Professor Maisie. Thought it had to be millais but couldn't see the 2 bits...

Can I have help please in understanding how "B M" is a MILL?
Thanks

ProfessorMaisie

That's one of the definitions in Chambers.

ProfessorMaisie

...about halfway down the entry for 'mill 1' - ''a b... m... (old sl.)''

Thanks! Chambers now on my Xmas present list!
Collins, Thesaurus and Google failed me.

Good idea, neversaydie - I don't think you'll regret it.

I am going quietly mad, trying to identify the final painter alluded to in the title. Anyone?

Neveracrossword

House - two letters + Garden = five letters. Painter - seven letters.

Thank you Neveracrossword. I can relax now.
