How is that Greased Lightning? 

 

You're not.

 

It is actually a grammatical error as the clue indicates lightening (ie. getting paler), not lightning (a flash of light preceding thunder)

This thread makes me feel like a complete stupid idiot. 

 

All you need is a bit of practice Jatt ...   here's todays offering from the Merc ...  back to their usual fodder I'm afraid ! ...   take your time !   :thumbup:

 

(I'll admit some of the older ones posted during lockdown were a bit as tricky as this lot were getting a bit good at finding the answers !!).

 

 

P.S.  And as you can see the answer to yesterdays was indeed Greased lightning so for any grammatically obsessed prats that don't understand what's going on please direct your blatherings to the Leicester Mercury ...   (and when they say you're talking nonsense remember to point out that they are wrong as you are always right).

yeah I’m not great at them but that was pretty obvious.

 

Ok get your choppers into this one ...   good attempt from the Mercury, slightly tenuous and definitely more taxing than the last one !

 

(Must admit, I didn't get it ! ..   :)) ...   bon chance !
