Fri., Oct.17

Today's Cryptic clues include charade, container, double definition, etc. My Spanish is poor, so I hope I correctly translated "house of mine is your house".

Three from LAT:


Southwestern agony aunt now mops decks (6)

Saint Raymond is feral (5)

Ditto marks in a Picasso doily (2,2,1)

Two from ST:

"Casa mia es su casa." "Ditto." (2,2,1)

What the store did, i.e., wrapped an Irish princess (6)
