Enjoyable throughout with everything clear in the end, and I learned a new word, idiom and aquatic species.

This was delightful! I was perplexed at the threshold of many clues, but never in the dark for too long.

I sweated a bit over this.

These succinct clues deploy deviously subtle tricks to hide the definitions and blend the wordplay into seamless surfaces.

The presence of three (3!) homophone clues distinguishes this worthy offering as much as anything else.

Solving this one required some neuronal plasticity (s t r e t c h), and I felt smarter when it was all worked out.

Only three anagrams this time, but hey, I’m not complaining!

This ride, as any with Harry at the wheel, was not without twists and turns, but as always it covered some interesting terrain

Pretty sure I’ve never done a Dean puzzle any easier than this (there are seven anagrams!), but it is also among those I’ve enjoyed the most.

A couple “naughty” clues make this a typical Sunday, and the wit and elegance of the setting a typical Price outing.
