For crossword boffins:

Post by Charlie Hastings »

From Saturday's i newspaper.. the last 2 I couldn't get. :evil:

People in good faith attending robberies (8) _ T _ E _ S _ S

Like highly driven person, start autobiography (4,1) T _ P _ , A <= if the last letter's not A then I'm worse off than I think

Anyone help ? The paper doesn't print the answer for another week (it's a prize one) and I'll have recycled it (notice that) and forgotten about it before then, but it's bugging me tonight!

Brilliant! Thank you so much - I'd found it a difficult crossword.

Mars bar or two on the way if I win the competition :D
