Quick Cryptic 3233 by Pedro

A good Pedro puzzle – enough tricky clues to make this more than a breeze, particularly getting the last few in.

My solve was interrupted more than once so I lost track of time.

Well, so much to enjoy in this rather more challenging than usual Monday offering!

This was my best QC solving time since my last blog a fortnight ago. How did you do?

This puzzle was surprisingly mild for a John Grimshaw, and was able to answer a number of the clues without consulting my Chambers.

There are a couple unusual—even NHO—words here, but all was clued so cleverly and entertainingly well that my solve was a steady romp.

A friendly puzzle from Jalna for all to enjoy.

Quite a slow start but I speeded up and finished over two sessions.

I struggled with the grape-treading clue. Otherwise, a very enjoyable Saturday.

A tough but very witty and enjoyable puzzle, which I struggled with due to some deviousness (setter) and ignorance (solver).
