Keep following that line of logic and declare any intermediate step as a starting point.

But they're not calling them "fresh grapes".
Using your reasoning, they would only be truly fresh if they were seeds and horse-poo (or other fertiliser).

Same thing with "fresh" graded parmesan cheese. The cheese was aged at least 90 days, it can't be fresh anymore!

Just as possible to have rotten and moldy raisins?

Forced to serve, he followed closely. (7)

Anyone want to supply (pretty obvious, I thought but oh well) solution?

Nope, still no nearer. I'd thought of pressed, deriving somehow from pressing things closely together, or apostle with the 'post' bit meaning followed, but had to give up when my brain started melting.

DRAFT verb (MILITARY): To order people by law to join the armed forces.
DRAFT verb (SPORTS): To follow closely, reducing the drag by exploiting the leaders slipstream.

DRAFTED means both forced to server (in the military) and following closely in someone's wind shadow.
I got hung up on "follows" meaning that two words are joined together and so got nowhere

Correct!
I thought it was quite easy, but I guess I over simplified it.

Maybe - although I have recently been in Holyhead so it is possible that I am below baseline intelligent at the moment.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Just get your coat, and don't let the door hit you as it closes...

Hi All,
Has anyone else noticed this the code sections of articles which are orange now have a 'colorised in X ms' for me in Firefox today. Must admit I have not really looked for a week or so is this anything to do with the Win 10 update, just that I have been using Weven when I have looked...

|

Yes.[^]

No, it's not "colorised in X ms", it's "colourised in X ms". if you are going to spell it English style with the "s" rather than the American style with "z" (both of which are equally valid) then you need to spell it "colour" rather than "color". Mixing the two is making my eyes cross!

... but right now, I'm not a happy camper! 
When I started my computer this morning, I got a message that it had been updated - and it took FOREVER to start up! Irritating, but not that uncommon of course...
After that, I've noticed:
1) I have been FORCED to log into OneDrive AND it wants to upload all the contents of My Documents folder to same. First of all, I don't WANT all my documents in the cloud! Second, I use Dropbox for the stuff I DO want there, and I'm perfectly happy with that!
2) My Windows Media Player seems to have disappeared, and all of my media file associations have been changed to stupid apps like Itunes etc... 
Just waiting to find other irritating changes!!!
[EDIT] 3) Oh, the Start menu has changed and doesn't look anything like what it did yesterday. Now I don't even know how to lock my computer! [/EDIT]
[EDIT 2] 4) I cannot play ANY video in ANY webbrowser - presumably somthing that has to do with 3) ! [/EDIT 2]
Anybody know why Media Player has been removed? And what Microsoft expects you to use instead? (I do use VLC as well, but Media Player was perfect for ripping CD's etc)...
