Women’s Weekly Colossus almost complete

I do the Colossus crossword that you put in the Australian Women’s Weekly to keep myself sane (april 09) and I have only one word left. It has taken a while to complete as I have only a few short moments to myself each day due to two little girls under 6 clamouring for my attention. I am begging you for the results or do I have to beg the Australian Women’s Weekly Mag? I must have made a mistake somewhere in it as I just cannot figure out the last clue.
Please can you help me? The Clue is 148 across ‘Abundantly productive’ – 8 letters Thank you.

I am happy to help you answer any clues that you get stuck on, or provide you with a hint if you’d rather keep trying to work it out for yourself. In this case the answer you are looking for was PROLIFIC. Before you know it those two little girls will be helping you unravel the clues. Happy puzzling!
