Hi everyone. I don’t have anything new or unexpected to say about this puzzle, for the good reason that Trelawney is very consistent. Nothing really held me up, so I put in one of my faster times. My standout favourite clue is 19a. Thanks Trelawney!

Hi everybody. I was on course for a very good time, but that became just a normal Monday time as I stared for ages at my last in before thinking of the right answer. I liked the puzzle and the delay at the end didn’t dent my enjoyment. Thanks Pipsqueak!

Hello all. I was a bit surprised to find this was a Trelawney because it took me a bit longer than usual for a Monday.  But not that surprised because I enjoyed it. It didn’t seem so hard when writing it up, so maybe I was just having a slow day.  Thanks Trelawney!

Hi all. I thought this puzzle from Pipsqueak was pitched well: it took me a little under my average time, which is normal for a Monday. Thanks Pipsqueak!

Hi everyone. Another enjoyable Oinker with lots of beautiful surfaces and some nicely disguised definitions – but nothing too devious for a QC, I would say. Thanks Oink!

Hi everybody. I really enjoyed this, and I suspect I won’t be alone. Trelawney keeps the difficulty down and the enjoyment up. It was close to personal-best-except-for-that-one-time-I-smashed-it territory for me, but I still found time to smile and appreciate the excellent surfaces. All good fun – cheers Trelawney!

Hello, and, if it is one for you, happy bank holiday! I managed to squeak in just a second under my inner target time of 5 minutes – so not a piglet from Oink. Thank you to Oink for the smiles!
