Had to take help from Google to confirm that the wordplay-based NAGAMIS indeed referred to shrubs, and had to cheat to get the anagram of S ASSAM sorted out for 28. Thanks for a good workout, KKK!<br /><br />Kishore, hats off to you for getting all but one done in time to post this by 8:30! Your blog helped me parse a word that I had got but didn't know why - CURATE. In retrospect, the parsing seems so obvious. :(Abhayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04198192791769284895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-44897832139412922662014-07-18T12:01:19.355+05:302014-07-18T12:01:19.355+05:30Yes CGB.
