The following clues form a word chain. The last three letters of one word form the first three letters of the next word, and the list wraps round from the last word to the first. A couple might need the Stitchionary, there may be one or two hyphenated or two-word ones in there, and remember it was compiled by a Brit. Plenty there, so feel free to grab a couple -1. Dense inner layer of skin -2. Capable of being and remaining mixed in all proportions. -3. Dickens' novel -4. System of bulletin boards -5. Irritated -6. Traditional Bavarian attire -7. African republic -8. Chivalrous -9. Psalm, hymn, or prayer sung in alternate parts. -10. Structure of hexagonal wax cells -11. Rain gauge -12. Shrewish woman -13. Of a period before a war -14. Emitting light -15. Person of ardent zeal -16. Crew member of a space mission -17. One who exercises absolute authority -18. Terrence, playwright -19. The world of organised crime -20. Sex hormone -21. Art of achieving superiority over others -22. Area of the brain -23. Part of the internal combustion engine -24. French sculptor -25. Person or thing that is anachronistically outmoded -26. Encircling ring of light or colour -27. Poisonous Mediterranean evergreen shrub
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
