Crossword 3

Yes very tense. Sorry I seem to have had a hard time counting how many letters this time around - how many words for that matter. I bet the Daily Telegraph doesn't have this problem.

Sandy, get the rest to save your honour. You can't win but show your character now - or else let her make you feel totally inadequate by supplying the remaining answers. (I know my daughter)

Profile

I'm an engineer. Expect the expected. I hate coriander. Repeating tensions such as clocks and dripping taps, which drive some people crazy, don't seem to affect me. I'm 51 and my backhand is still a work in progress. 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. 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. If you shorten my first name I'll think you're stupid. I intend to live to the age of 121.
