This one was not too bad, although a bit harder than Paul’s usual.     After much struggle, I kept saying I should have seen that one right away.

This one was a little tough, even though I finished most of it on a Saturday night, and polished off most of the rest the next morning.   Most, but not all.

Greetings, barred-grid fans. Hopefully last week’s challenge didn’t take away your will to live!

I had a little trouble getting started, but I made tolerable progress until the nearly the end.   However the last few were pretty tough, and requited an extensive dictionary trawl.

Greetings, barred-grid fans!

This one was pretty easy for a Mephisto, and  I found little to hold me up.   I actually knew most of the answers, unlike some Mephistos I have done.

This week we have a rather easy Mephisto from Robert Teuton, which is not always the case with him.   There is nothing wrong with varying the level of difficulty, or mixing easy clues with difficult ones in the same puzzle.   I was able to solve most of this in one sitting, but then ended up completely stuck on two of the easiest clues.
