    Nice one Leonard - I've never seen ALAPA before, always nice to learn a new word!

        thanks for the constructor note... took me awhile to understand the theme (then i reread your note and got it) - SNOOD is new for me, tried all the vowels at the NEKO/SNOOD crossing, only to find out I had "raingear" instead of "rainwear"

          nice puzzle... all the long downs are really hard to fit into a puzzle, but they worked well
