Anglicism was my undoing. Briticism? I suppose it must be correct.
@Dougie "Huvye goat enny Irn Bru?" Naw ah huvnae there'll be nane in tae the morra." I'm wi' you there should be nane ae that nae fur naw in the crossword.
@Jon I'd never heard of Etta Jones but played her version of at last on Youtube. An hour later I'm still listening to Etta James' At Last album. I like both the Jones and the James version. The rabbit holes are why I like the NYT crossword.
It saddens me when people think Nessie is a myth. She and her sister Morag in Loch Morar are just shy.
Polled ahead not crossing with Ono was my downfall.
@Jive Miguel now, a Hamilton pro would be an Accie or a Partick pro would be a Jag. Of course I wouldn't expect anyone outside Scotland to get them. I'm learning the US sports team very slowly, that's why I do the NYT for the culture lessons.
@Jack G H It does aggravate me to hear it.
Accidental as I'm sure it was any crossword that includes the great Jock Stein makes my day.
@SP Until I read this I couldn't find where I'd gone wrong I knew poptoplim had to be wrong but sometimes I get stuck on Americana. I thought Cuss was probably right for lip. I just had a bum rap I suppose.
@Steve Now I know it I don't mind if I see it scads of times.
