    107a BUNGEI
    11a CAREW

    Does anybody know
    86a Snow-runners (4)
    87d Total prize-money (5)

    Just wondering about 107ac. Two Kenyans won gold in Biejing.
    LANGAT won Women's 1500 metres and BUNGEI won Men's 800 metres. Both answers fit.
    Also dont see connection with Healy for 70 ac
    Clue reads "Sounds as if he is keen on rugby" I went for KEANE from our own Moss Keane.
    Another query. 62 ac Kilkenny player (3) ??T. Is it CAT or PAT. There was one PAT on the all-Ireland team.

    Thought that they had the crossword in the Saturday paper ?

    Bah.

    As they tend to mess it up every year, maybe they will publish the errors on Saturday instead :D

    Have a look on Page 2 Post #23.

    BTW just in case anyone spelled it wrong the answer to 109a is Sammon.

    Hi,Merry Christmas, not entirely happy with camelot. The horse camelot is trained by Aidan O'Brien and the only connection I can see is through king arthur, but what has that got to do with sport? and 42ac, red winners, bull? doesn't fill me with confidence. Any thoughts?:confused:
