Nothing to frighten the horses in this neat offering by Alfie

I found this very neat and tidy with some nice surfaces

I enjoyed this. It’s fairly straightforward, but introduces some devices that are marginal for a QC, so beginners may struggle

An odd one this. Two snakes, three birds and a dog.

This was deceptively difficult.

I enjoyed this. Medium difficulty I’d say, but nice surfaces and rewarding wordplay.

This didn’t put up a great deal of resistance, coming in well under target at 4 and a bit minutes.

Medium difficulty I would say, with some write-ins as well as chewier ones.

Another orgy of anagrams, which took a little while to get going, but flowed well after that

One for the anagram fans, this was pretty straightforward and workmanlike.
