Is anybody out there?

6d- could be an unclued light though couldn't it

[crucifernz]

Oh dear! I'll still solve it for fun after I've folded the answers away.

[zita-green]

The solutions to this week's xword have been printed in the solutions grid for 1970

[teacher1]

Ah !!!! lol ...... With the answers supplied I might actually finish it this week ! lol ;o)

[djawhufc]

Oh I printed it off and didn't have the answers grid on my page-

Now I see it- what a shame

[zita-green]

No false modesty teacher1. I bet you finish every week!

[slaney]

Didn't notice the error until I'd finished - ah well!

[teacher1]

I must be honest ...... after seeing the answers I would still have had trouble finishing it. lol ;o)

[zita-green]

Me too teach. Happily, 1Across has just arrived so will tackle that instead.

Be prepared for a 'Doh!' moment dj'. The solution for 1970 is actually that for today's puzzle. Geddit?

Thanks Mintyman for the PDF, though as previously discussed in this thread, none of us will have the gall to post our entries as solution has been provided by Doc in error...

I feel such a fool. My printer is not working at the moment so a friend of mine printed this off for me without the solution etc from 3 weeks ago. Did it, posted it and then thought I'd look at what others had to say! Oh well, it's merely a wasted second class stamp but, at least, I got though it and learned something new.
