Parse please
Is 6D Olympian? If so why? “Something irrational in male saint that’s rejected top deity
And Oman and Abed for that matter

Thanks

[Lie-in King]

Yes - Olympian - 'pi' (irrational [number], in) '(h)oly man' (rejected top)

Hi Bozzer - sorry, I missed the rest of your Q. Which puzzle is this & what are the clues for "Oman" & "Abed", please?

I might not be around to answer you, but someone will :-)

[Bozzer]

Thanks lie in. I was looking for a saints name. Olympian minus the pi was coming up with some very odd suggestions! Overthinking…moi?

Abed?

Country that splits the difference between male and female adults
Oman?

Thanks NAC. I assumed something similar but I don’t like it even so

Forbes theatre is where Abraham Lincoln was shot. But he died in a bed at the Whitehouse. Not in the theatre.

Abe (nickname for Lincoln) + D (ied)

Abed ( in bed)

[Lie-in King]

Abed - 'Abe (Lincoln) d(ied)' - not in Ford's Theatre, but in Petersen House (presumably in a bed)

Aargh! Must learn to refresh the screen ;-)

Hi Klazo - yes, he died at Petersen House & his body was then moved to the White House.

I've now printed the puzzle & will look at it later - if I can get in the mood :-)
