Can anyone please give me a clue to No.28? Thanks.

If you tell use the question, we may be able to help.

Not everybody does the same quizzes so need question to be able to help.

[Lapis]

Sorry! All the answers relate to 'money matters'. The question is: He opened at new casino but was master of this (5,4)...

[rbind]

James Bond?

That's the nearest I've got rbind but I'm not entirely happy as I can't really see where "master of this" fits in

[Goofy]

me too incognito.

[Peasblossom]

I took a guess at Black Jack, but not sure either

[newarch]

'He' is an anagram of 'at new casino'. Find him first and the rest should follow.

[Lapis]

Thank you

Just leaves no.53 'Loaf around for a while'??

[Badger4]

My first thought was "Stale bread" but I am not convinced - any thoughts?

[incognito]

Again that's the nearest I've got , Badger, but like you I do have reservations

It is a neat answer , the only problem being that I would hardly consider "stale bread" a well known phrase; it isn't included in Chambers under either 'bread' or 'stale'

[Badger4]

Exactly - I will continue to ponder.

[Goofy]

still can#t get 28, but I did get 6 answers today - all by myself, by which I mean not AB.

[Dinkypuzzled]

newarch has the key.

[Lapis]

Goofy: Look at Newarch's earlier answer re 28 - find anagram and google answer.
I think STALE BREAD could be right for 53, but I'm not 100% sure. Where is Newarch when we need him/her??!!
