68 Fitzroy had something to do with lifeboats so perhaps that's the answer?

No 68 Inventor of a carriage first name Fitzroy


44 Think American politics


Good luck. have you got 38 or 85 yet? Any hints appreciated.

(Fiztroy) Stanhope - it's an anagarm of the answer to number 4.
38 Think of daily as someone who cleans + the French + old-fashioned word for suitor.

Question Author

hi spritzer! Thank you for your hints...got no 44 at last...These quizzes aren't half good at expanding ones highly esoteric vocabulary!


about 85....start with the tour - dishearten it - & then add the players.

Thanks kettlerum,


I'll keep working on it, I'm not as good as I thought I was at cryptic clues the person who compiled this one is very, very clever.
