Thank youany thoughs on 13d?
................don't understand how (9) can be two words? :o)
Question Author
Thanks builder. With these advanced puzzles the setter does not give the individual letter count for a clue of more than one word. The only indication is that this particular clue is a total of 9 letters made up of two words, but that could be anything from 1,8 through to 5.4.!!
13d Tray Trips
Sorry typo Traps not trips
I think 8d is HumOngous not HumUngous

You're welcome midazolam. Thanks also to kayakamina, I came on the site looking for 13d !
13D ...
Hold on there, not so hasty ...
Those of a sensitive disposition should look away [I'm still sensitive after being unceremoniously censored here for suggesting that I might occasionally get a bit "pi**ed" - that's "pie-eyed" for any shrinking violets looking in].
Anyway, for 13D you need a slightly more lascivious view of what "cup holders" are.
"Some" is PART backwards all right but money is BRASS - so put one in the other ("Oh Missus") and you get BRA-STRAPS.
D'oh ! Too late - its in the post !
