Crossword2 - 6

Well, Alex has come with a late charge, even giving one answer when there wasn't a clue. I'm so proud of my daughter for answering all the hard ones Sandy left, that I nearly decided to award double points. However, since she appeared to get bored two-thirds of the way down I held off.

Denise 1 answer
Lyn 10 answers
Odette 17 answers
Sandy 26 answers
Alex 17 answers

There are only three clues left so once agagin Sandy can't be caught, but there is a dead heat for second place so I'd still like the answers please...

ACROSS:
63. Can be flat, toe-clip or SPuD.(6)

DOWN:
44. Ah, the sound of these on a frosty winters morning. I miss it.(7)
45. Borrow, colloquial.(4)

63 across Peddle

Haven't got a clue about the last two. It's not laziness, it's ignorance.

Not right, sorry. For everyone: two people have suggested this answer. Think plural, think spelling.

I'm an engineer, so expect the expected. I dislike coriander. I like owls. I hate cold water. Repeating tensions such as clocks and dripping taps, which drive some people crazy, don't seem to affect me. I survived cancer in 2019. I once drank seven mugs of tea in 15 minutes. I have trouble understanding why people keep dogs as pets. All of my names contain 7 letters. My lowest three vertebrae are held in place by titanium rods. Deep water represents the unknown, which terrifies me. I read slowly. I eat quickly. I was briefly insane in the autumn of 1990. My happiest moments were spent throwing arrows around a field when I was 12. My favourite colour is blue. I rarely catch colds. I believe that not taking part in any physical activity after the age of 30 is the equivalent of not ducking when being punched. I accept and respect the existence of an opposite point of view. I wish I had a good plot idea so I could write a book. I have never bought a tabloid newspaper. I sink in water. Of the five people I spent my teenage years with, three are dead. I think that in a family context, love should be unconditional. I believe to the core of my being that man's most divisive and destructive creation is God. I neglected my father and regret it now he's gone. I can hear and memorise numbers instantly and retain them indefinitely, but forget what my wife tells me in seconds. I dislike fruit in desserts. Masks scare me. Only my family should shorten my first name. I intend to live to the age of 121. There is no retina in my right eye. I've been to five continents but I hate sight-seeing.
