Regarding The Kropotkin puzzle for 22/05/21, 2D ‘Exhibiting vigour, Doctor Green is consulting initially’ = ENERGIC. Perfectly logical. However, if this is correct we have 13A ‘Man possibly drops shilling in front of unknown tree’ = !?c?
So man possibly could be = INCA. But that makes no sense. However if 13A = ILEX that does. (Man possibly drops shilling = I[s]LE plus X the unknown). Then ENERGIC is wrong!
Please explain!
Hi Ray… I agree, I can only assume Kropotkin has made a mistake. See my footnotes on the posted solution: http://www.verso.net.nz/kropotkin-crossword-22-05-21/
It’ll be interesting to see the posted solutions in next week’s Herald!
