8:02. A gentle one from Harry this week.

I started well here, but the last few slowed me down dramatically!

This one had a distinctly British flavo(u)r—as is only proper, of course. But I got along with it fairly easily. How’d y’all do?

Fortunately America wasn’t my special subject! Several clues in this one featured facts about the USA that exposed gaps in my knowledge.

15:13. I found this quite tricky, but when I came to write up the blog I couldn’t for the life of me see why.

After a full week, I don’t remember much about this. Perhaps it was easy?

I liked this a lot. Seven (!) anagrams, certainly not complaining about that, and I learned a new phrase, a new word, and a new English town.

One clue has a device I didn’t quite understand. Otherwise, business as usual.

19:25. A decidedly tricky one from Dean this week.

I had no idea what a suid might be. But, the answer makes perfect sense!
