Cryptic crossword clues for Fabbers
Jump to: Newest in thread
Continuing the now closed thread. Originally inspired by a crossword clue in the Times cryptic crossword :
Plain caravan ? I’ll alter covers (7)
Definitely not for Fabbers !
Answer - Vanilla.
Any wishing to add some more clues they have made up - make sure the answer is a Fab related term. If you get the answer, just give a thumbs up rather than spoiler it please.
To kick I'll recycle another one from the Times Cryptic, which was posted in the other thread.

I am not sure as to how I can give a clue without giving away the answer. Let's say it could also be a 4 letter word followed by a 3 letter word. Dame letters. The 7 letter answer is a blend word. |
