So we're doing crossword clues? Here's NYT Monday version
1. An ancient Irishman
2. At the confluence of the Ille and Vilaine rivers
Those crossword clues are not in the least cryptic.
How about - 1) Disturbed winter sleep without additional play.
2) A herd of caribou in Quebec.
They're cryptic enough to confuse me.
Is it Hibs and Lille? I'm just guessing because of Ille being
similar to Lille; I haven't got time to e-mail my French friend and
ask where the Ille and Vilaine Rivers are and wait for her reply.
Rennes (French pronunciation: [ʁɛn] ⓘ; Breton: Roazhon [ˈrwɑːõn]; Gallo: Resnn; Latin: Condate Redonum) is a city in the east of
Brittany in Northwestern France at the confluence of the rivers Ille
and Vilaine. Rennes is the prefecture of the Brittany region and Ille-et-Vilaine department.
So my picks were Hibernian and Rennes
Assuming it is, I'll go for St. Mirren
You can change your pick if you like

I take it that Scottish Church = Dundee, but who knows?
I'm pretty sure he alludes to a Dun Kirk.
Ciao,

Kirk = church yes, how does Dun = brown?

I believe these days it's mostly used for the coats of horses and the like?

I said it was the Monday version!

Hiberniaton (disturbed(?) winter sleep) minus "to" = Hibernian, but why
is "to" additional play?
2) A herd of caribou in Quebec.
Huh?
