Me too. As of 3 o'clock, I'm out of here for three weeks holidayfication. Gin - check Tonic - check Lurid shirt - check I think I'm just about ready. Mrs Wife and the Angel Monsters have already gone. I'll get to Budapest about midnight and then early tomorrow morning we drive down to the Hungarian Sea. To the best of my knowledge, we have about 1 hour, 6 minutes and 32 seconds when there will not be a single relative or friend visiting; but hey it's the summer holiday. :cool: :cool:
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.

And I was expecting a nice, casual Friday, crossword clue. :(
Ok "A Bum, Red, with agitation by a metal instrument - enter it and disappear?" (7,8) Hows that for a gentle firday clue?

Too much, I feel a little off today from the beer and whisky last night. :doh: Maybe after a nice 300g cheeseburger, and maybe a beer while I wait for it. :suss:

Oh boy I was out too last night, I was as rough as a badger arse this morning, but managed to haul my carcass into work somehow! Half a bottle of full fat coke and BLT sandwich has made a hell of a difference!

Not a fricking clue! (as usual) A Bum - homeless, hobo, tramp, bottom? Red - Maroon? Rouge? (with - could this indicate joining two words together?) agitation by a metal instrument - whisk, stir, beat? (Enter it - could this indicate that a word is inside another?) disappear - vanish, hide, hid, invisible? Are any of these on the right lines? [Edit: Ahh, "A Bum, Red, with agitation by a metal instrument" could this be caning or spanking, smacking? How about sore, or tender? Still clueless :laugh: ]

A Bum Red is the important bit, with agitation indicates and anagram. by, means it (the word) sits next to the next part of the clue. A metal instrument. Name an instrument made of metal.(think musically) Enter it and disappear... Self evident when you get the first part! Does that help>?

Never would have spotted that, but I suppose that's the kind of thing you get used to looking for. Kind of all falls into place after you know that bit.

well done, I will have another tomorrow. But once you start seeing them, they come more easily. That said, I still give a Tick VG to a particularly good or amusing clue and a groan to a bad one! :)
