Times 29329 – Timur rides again

Author   ulacaPosted on 8th September 2025 at 8:00 AM10 September 2025Categories Daily Cryptic

Possibly, a good one in terms of constructions for those contemplating a move to the main cryptic from the Quickie, but with some tricky vocab. So, don’t despair if you have a go, but can’t lick it!

Times 29221 – Ulaca on the Shore

Author   ulacaPosted on 5th May 2025 at 8:01 AM10 September 2025Categories Daily Cryptic

I found this a tad harder than your average Monday, with two clues I can’t fully parse.
