Annoyingly, it didn't cross my mind that the jumbo crosswords might be in yesterday's paper so I didn't buy it (assuming that this was in yesterday's paper).
Yes it was yesterday's Times. By the way, I just heard that I won Mephisto 2676. I've been sending in prize crosswords for decades and had never ever won anything, so was beginning to think that God didn't exist. Now I have definitive proof that He does.
True. OK, in that case I'm off to M&S as soon as it opens to buy a bottle of champagne instead. Cheers, chum -- happy new year and thanks for all past help.
