Subject: 60s UK folkie: Chris A _ N _ I _ R From: GUEST, Paul Slade Date: 19 Nov 16 - 09:42 AM I have one clue left in the January 2017 issue's Mojo crossword. it's proving resistant to Google, so I'm turning to Mudcat for help. The clue reads: "Cliff, UK folkie prominent on the '60s scene (7)". From the answers around it (which I'm confident are correct), I know the answer runs A-blank-N-blank-I-blank-R. Any ideas? |

Subject: RE: 60s UK folkie: Chris A _ N _ I _ R From: GUEST,Paul Slade Date: 19 Nov 16 - 11:22 AM I'm sure it must be, Effsee - thanks very much. If I win the prize (a bunch of Beatles Abbey Road stuff), I'll make you sure you get a taste. In another notable clue from this particular Mojo crossword, we're asked to provide the Christian name of "Folk singer (and MBE) McCarthy". Five letters, starting with an E and ending in A. I know who the clue-setter's got in mind, but can you spot his not-so-deliberate mistake? |
Subject: RE: 60s UK folkie: Chris A _ N _ I _ R From: Jeri Date: 19 Nov 16 - 11:30 AM It it's who I'd normally suggest, there are three pretty severe mistakes, which seems to indicate it's probably not who I'd normally suggest. |
