Comments on: Financial Times 14,117 – Falcon http://www.fifteensquared.net/2012/10/04/financial-times-14117-falcon/ Never knowingly undersolved. Sun, 19 May 2013 09:40:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Sil van den Hoek http://www.fifteensquared.net/2012/10/04/financial-times-14117-falcon/#comment-207167 Sil van den Hoek Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:08:06 +0000 http://fifteensquared.net/?p=49723#comment-207167 Well, ernie, I am happy to underline ‘lodge’ too, but it’s still not very satisfying. Falcon is, IMHO, too precise (perhaps even, er, Ximenean) to follow your idea.
It would be nice if Falcon joined in to explain what’s going on here (like he sometimes does in the Observer wearing his Everyman dress).

Oh, and sorry, Bamberger, I really found this very easy.
And believe me (which some don’t) I am really just an average solver.
Re CRESSIDA, in the early 70s I had two albums (LPs as they used to call them then) by a band with that name, a band that I really liked. I still have them!

Stick around and lodge could simply be a double definition albeit with the subsidiay part in the middle.
to lodge = to stay

I suppose it depends how good you are. I could take you down a ski slope that would be very easy for me but you might freeze in panic half way down.
Anyway after an eternity I gave up still needing 7a,8d & 13a . I’d never heard of 8d or 13a so would never have got them.

Because I was too much fiddling about with PeeDee’s software, I didn’t include personal comments this time.

Could it be that “lodge” is the containment indicator, and not “about” as I originally thought, and “say”=”to speak about”?

As you say both easy and enjoyable. I do have a question about the significance of “lodge” in 27ac. Am I missing something?
