    86 across: Doolin (Doolin/Dalton is a song on the album Desperado),
    45 down: many clouds (anagram of clumsy nod), the horse.

    AMEN IS THE DECLARATION


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 78 ✭✭ Palbear


    AMEN is not correct


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 78 ✭✭ Palbear


    AVOW fits but not sure if that's correct either


    does anybody have 83d
    your keeper simply has to get them right (6)

    Angles?

    I think AVOW is correct.

    Anyone have 112 across: "The openings come from the east on these occasions"

    None of the answers I think of makes any sense.

    Cheers.

    Thanks, I thought of 'events' but I don't understand it and the reference to east.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 78 ✭✭ Palbear


    vents are openings.
    they come after E for East

    e-vents

    or maybe my cryptic logic is warped

    91a. Sounds like a bit of a row on the set of Fifth Gear..... (4) _I_F
