Hi Mary. Are these clues all for the same crossword? If so, it would be helpful if you could keep them to a single thread rather than starting a new thread each time.
See the Ed's guide for asking crossword clues here:
http://www.theanswerb...r-crossword-question/
It's helpful to people who solve lots of these every day if you say the publication, date and number of the crossword in the title rather than just "Crossword".
Also, there is a section underneath Q&P specifically for crosswords. If you ask your crossword questions in there, you get the opportunity to use the title builder too.
