As I had finished the Times cryptic, I decided to have a go at Azed's crossword. Very humbling! I have managed just 8 answers with a tentative two more. SWMBO says I have spent too much time on it. As ever, she is right. But I shall have another go, next week.

As a newcomer to Azed, you might find the commentary on my web site useful - each week I try to select the trickier wordplays or more interesting clues for explanation/comment:
If you are new to barred crosswords as a whole then I would add that the 'plain' Azeds are a very good place indeed to start (the occasional 'specials' do tend to be tougher).
Thank you sir. I found your explanations VERY interesting. If I am allowed i shall have another go tomorrow. I am not too bad at the Times jumbo ( with guidance from others!)) so this will stretch me further.
