Thank you again. Either the crossword is a little harder today or I am getting more stupid (I’m going for the latter.)
Thanks, E
No - I agree with you, it was harder today!
Today's Everyman crossword is clearly compiled by a different setter from the usual one(s). It's taking me an age to work through, and I can usually complete the thing in less than an hour.
plinth2000 I thought exactly the same thing! I've been doing this crossword for 20 years and I've never had to resort to 'crossword solver' fill-in-the-blanks tactics so often. Many of the clues are absolutely terrible -- 21A and 23D especially -- and there's way too much slang. Here's hoping the regular setter is just on holiday and they get rid of this numptie asap.
