Quick Cryptic 3281 by Jalna
I blame not so early morning torpitude for my slow time.
Times Cryptic 29522
A lively and enjoyable puzzle. Fun to solve.
Times 29521 – Χαίρετε!
I had nothing until I got half way through the acrosses, but then everything slipped into place nicely
Quick Cryptic 3280 by Trelawney
A thoroughly enjoyable puzzle from Trelawney aimed squarely at the QC market
Mephisto 3424 – John Blackham….you could look him up!
This medium level puzzle by Robert Teuton was not too difficult to solve, although parsing some of the more difficult clues was another matter. I think I’ve finally got it all, after doing some research.
Sunday Times Cryptic No 5211 by Dean Mayer — I saw the light!
I didn’t know the idiom or the fish or another interesting word (it’s always great to discover a novel nugget of crystallized meaning)…
Quick Cryptic no 3279 by Alex
A puzzle that I found quite challenging in places.
Times Cryptic Jumbo No 1782 – 4th April
I thought this a fairly straightforward Jumbo Cryptic.
Times Cryptic Jumbo 1783 – Delizioso, grazie.
Plenty to feast on in our Cryptic Jumbo from Easter Monday.
