Enigmatic Variations 1661 Pig Latin by Chalicea

As Autumn descends on us, Chalicea provides some indoor amusement. Extra letters in the wordplay of 27 clues should enable 13ac to be found. And 13ac should enable four statements to be completed around the perimeter.

The additional letters in the wordplay gave

I WENT THE WHOLE HOG TOTUS PORCUS

A google enabled me to determine the admiral who coined the phrase – ADMIRAL FISHER

The perimeter took some time to resolve – he was quite prolific in creating quotations

• ANY FOOL CAN OBEY ORDERS (starting from the 4th row on the left)
• BUGGIN’S TURN
• SACK THE LOT
• OH MY GOD

And that is that – the pig latin relating to whole hog/ TOTUS PORCUS

Thanks Chalicea – another educational piece for me. Not sure I’d want to be in the same room as Admiral Fisher though.
