Oh dear, totally confused, just trying to see if there was anything in the AB about this Xword!
Type it in the Search box devadolly just above 'Latest Posts'
Hello devadolly, you have landed in a newly vamped AB site. As yet no comments on this weeks EV.
Last weeks, 1262 was in my opinion rather fierce, but I did get it finished. Even the Upton Times made sense afterwards!
No problems completing this week's EV, 1263 though.
How are are you and Himself? I and Herself are of to OZ soon for nearly a month.
I often wonder what happened to ringer, drb, novalis, jogler and how many pens they have won!
Forgot to ask about Ginger Mog!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh thank you Captain2, easy when one knows how! Ginger Mog still going strong Doc. Himself actually thinking about retiring, in contact with Ruthrobin but all the other regulars seem to have abandoned ship, such a shame. Still finishing last weeks effort and have no clue as to what the Upton Times is altho' have eventually sorted the changes. Just the endgame of this weeks to sort, know the work but not what needs doing. Where in Oz?
deva ...upton times has nothing to do with a newspaper... could be split up ton (where ton refers to 100) X (times)
this week's ... look down the(usual) diagonal

Oh for goodness sakes! Thank you Roslyn, so obvious if only I would get both brain cells working in tandem. Busy boring morning so have promised myself an hour or two grid staring this affo, very welcome asdvise.

Pleased that G. Mog still going strong, is his apprentice fully trained now?. I didn't think Farmers ever retired. Will it involve moving to somewhere with less land? Presumably more holidays!!

Start in Adelaide, for a wedding, (Herself's cousin's daughter), then Port Lincoln, where the cousin lives, back to Adelaide to take the train to Melbourne, stay there a while then train round to Sydney for a few more nights. We are away just about 4 weeks. Been twice before for work, spending 20 or so hours in Economy wasn't fun, so doing this trip Business Class and First Class on the trains. Off to Costa Rica in May.

Say Hello to Ruthrobin from me.

Oh yes they do Doc when there is no-one to take over. Certainly somewhere with no land that we have to look after, just shut the door and go away for a couple of days instead of having to spend three weeks organising every aspect of farm life before walking out. Happy to pay a maintenance charge for someone else to do the weeding and I'm sure we'll find a farm needing a helping hand during silo/harvest/lambing should Himself feel at a loose end!
Have found the 9 letters but am stretching the little grey cells as to what to replace it with.
Devadolly, try putting the word on the diagonal and "deleted" into Mr Google, all should be revealed, even the Creeping Man reference!

That's really god news that you will be able to have a lot of "you time", but be able to send Himself out elsewhere if he feels at a loose end. Will you stay up in the North West? I suspect Ginger Mog might like the new environment, but the apprentice might prefer to stay on the training ground!

Thanks Doc.
