.........until Daniel is able to send us a better link, try this one - better than the normal miniscule grid although it's over 2 pages.

Not large to me Roslyn.
Maybe you scrolled with the CTRL key pressed?
Press CTRL-0 to restore (that is numeral zero not letter 'o'.)

[roslyn251254]

No - didn't scroll with CTRL pressed ( gen2 - you know I'm not that technical!!)
Just lucky then to get a big grid as i usually need a magnifying glass when I use the speccie site to get the puzzle. it actually printed more than 2 pages - others were the usual guff, but use "print selection" to just get the 2 required pages.

Hi all

Better late than never- sorry for the delay!

[roslyn251254]

Nice puzzle today from Doc with very straightforward clues - good puzzle for newbies to speccie.
Thanks daniel for the "real" copy!

Thanks as ever Daniel and I hope your computer problems
are not too serious.

I'm a bit surprised that Doc hasn't used this theme before.

I waited for Daniel...Cheers!

Hi K

Hope family are all doing well.

The Mac just packed up completely- fortunately it is under warranty so I either get a new one or a free repair.

You have to book an appointment to see Apple which I have this pm so should be sorted over the next week.

All the best

DJA

I was patient enough to wait (or late enough out of bed). Thanks again. Nothing too tricky there. You're making me nervous Daniel as I have just bought a Mac.

Almost finished, just 13a (unclued) left.
I have ?O?ES?A?, although the first three letters are easy. Is it a word that's not in Chambers or the OED?
