Diffney Quiz 2015....

Neverforgotten

Just wondering if anyone is doing this quiz in the Holly Bough and fancies sharing their clues, difficulties etc.?

I have had my copy 2 weeks now, and only 14 of the 60 are answered.

Wondering is it just me finding it hard this year?

Yes! Love the Diffney and the crossword.

And it's not just you! I'm finding it more difficult this year as well. Maybe I'm just getting old.

I've 42 of the 60 done. Really struggling with the last 18.

Can only give you hints on two, I'm stuck on the others also:

No 8 - think of a theatre on MacCurtain Street (and it's street number)
No 60 - the number of activities in a multiple sporting event

Any clues for the 'as gaelige' ones (15, 25 and 47)?

jacquelineann

U genius!!!! Thanks!!!
15. Think between a rock and hard place
25. Think of Ritchie Kavanagh

silverwood

Ah yes, thanks, easy when you know the answers!

jacquelineann

I'm new to this place... hope u got my clues....

No quarter given

I'm stuck on the Y in C S and 1 M in M by J S.

I thought the second one might have been a song, one month in May but that was by James Taylor.

If anyone can shed light on the other two that would be great.

3 B O, C tg4 also.

Think it might be something on clar tg4.

Scoured the listings but to no avail.

I am sure we could swap the answer for TG4 for the 1 M in M answer.
