Clue/Question:  Paul didn’t want to put off finishing this until tomorrow.

Answer:  YESTERDAY

(I’m really glad Jeff gave John hairy legs!  Otherwise, I might’ve thought that was Paul’s Mum, don’t ya know!  Just kidding.  Great cartoon!  Clue words were pretty easy, but everything was well scrambled, and the answer letter layout gave nothing away.  I think, by now, most people have heard the story of how the working title of Yesterday was originally Scrambled Eggs.  Obviously, prior to any serious lyrics!  Not sure if this was actually Paul’s original inspiration for it, or just Jeff’s vivid imagination.  It looks like a whole slew of you had trouble getting Saturday’s, and a pretty good number for Sunday’s as well!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
