I have one clue left to solve the Manchester Crossword. Can someone e-mail me the answer to this clue:

14 Down: Confused ass heroes provide a band for John Squire (9 letters)

Here's the letters I have so far

_E_H_A_E_

I know it's Stone Roses-related. I need to mail the puzzle ASAP to make it to the May 1st Deadline.

I'll give you a clue - the A is wrong. It should be an O.

Believe it or not, that's what I have thought all along! I didn't think that I messed up on one of the letters. Thanx guys. I'll correct it and send the puzzle. :thumb:

Oops!

Sorry!

The clue was the hall where Moza, Mark E. Smith and others saw the Sex Pistols (4, 5). I said Trade Hall, not Free Trade (Lesser Free Trade Center). It was in the mag.

I think I bursted my own bubble with this hype over the puzzle. I couldn't make it to the post office to send it to make it to the deadline. It's expensive also. God, I would do anything to get a framed pic of Ian, or even a pack of Smith CDs. :(

We'll see if we can sort you out a framed pic of Burt instead, Cozzie... Or s pack of seeds from the shed... :)

I am thinking of trying to write a shed-themed crossword, or at least come up with some clues for each Shedhead... For example:

Nurse silences journalist, gobby bitch (6,4)

Any ideas?

I'll go with the seeds. I need some flowers near the shed, instead of a pic of annoying idiot. :flowerhead:

Hey, I'm a real NO fan. Just making a joke as usual. Go see my response to the May 4th thread. Why would I want a pic of Burt in the first place when what I should have is a pic of Ian instead? Answer me that Doctor. :D

Maybe we should all retire to the shed for a nice cup of tea, before this thread is forced at gun-point to take a nice detour to an isolated air-field... :)

Here's something to keep her amused since she seems to like crosswords: the next in my series of Shedhead crossword clues - who is this Cozzie?

She mixes demon shit and a drug (10)

SHEDimon, what's that supposed to mean? :confused3: And Steve, I finally got your comment about the oppressors. I pulled another all-nighter again. I need some shut-eye bad. :sleep:

It's a cryptic crossword clue. The answer is shedmonite. I'll explain:

She - this is the answer to which the clue refers - a female Shedhead mixes - this means there is anagram - rearrange the letters of the following demon shit - rearrange this bit and a drug - the answer is 10 letters - demon shit only contains 9 so you need another letter, which is also a drug = e

Rearrange demon+shit+e > shedmonite... Clever, huh?

There will be more cryptic fun in the shed later...
