    Friday Cryptic Crossword Game

    "Dynamite novels" were an 1890s penny-dreadful subgenre, I think.

            What was the function of "Keith's neighbour" in yours Duncan? I had the answer, but no time for clueing, but couldn't see what the first bit was all about.

                    ad hoc: Elgin and Keith are neighbouring towns in Moray. (Well, almost: Google Maps suggests Fochabers lies between them on the A36.)

                      My info is that Fochabers is a mere village.

                        Do I give hints too early, or does Nef give them too late? Or both?

                        Anyway: please could we have a hint?

                                    I've got a near-anagram for "Ye lefty freak", in the form of a NI footballer, which seems likely given the setter. But it doesn't quite work: too many 'l's and not enough 'e's.

                                        The answer is indeed 'Kyle Lafferty', but based on what logic we'll never know.

                                        Just set a clue and be done with it.

                                                I'm using a variant transliteration, DG, so that's not quite right.

                                                  Replace with 'Felafel'. Thanks for the tip, that's tomorrow's sandwiches sorted. Waitrose do a nice vairant with spinach.
