I spent my childhood holidays in NEVIN in CAERNARVONSHIRE, but nowadays it would be NEFYN in CAERNARFONSHIRE.
Can Everyman provide a currently used reference to his spelling?

There was no error in my blog.
After I saw Sam’s message I scrolled up and looked at 19ac and thought I had written GEN (information) instead of ‘dope’. Only later I realised that Sam was referring to 25ac where we have GEN (dope).

I have since corrected the careless typing error in my blog.

Both mean ‘information’.

You’re probably having in mind the clue

Satanist crudely drawn in book (1,5,2,7)

which was featured some weeks ago. I am unable to give the Everyman crossword number as I solved it in the Indian avatar of the crossword.

The same anagram fodder might have appeared elsewhere too.
