Times Quick Cryptic 2305 by Orpheus

Author   KittyPosted on 9th January 2023 at 1:36 AM10 September 2025Categories Quick Cryptic

Hi all.  I hope 2023 has started well for you.

Thanks to Orpheus for another enjoyable puzzle, in which I noticed quite a few things in other things.  He or she is not one of them, but I liked the creative musician in 10a.

Times 28495 – Our audiophile Congress

This one was a bit of a biff-fest for me, so I’ll need to figure out the cryptics as I write the blog. As it turns out, there was nothing too difficult, so this puzzle might well be suitable for the Quickie crowd to try their hand on.
