I've only done this crossword a couple of times - I found it very easy this month - how about you ?

[shaneystar2]

Easier than usual apart from that one !
I have been doing it for ages and actually won it once !
Sometimes it's very hard especially when they throw in these Gaelic place names and phrases and another time you can breeze through it .Lots of us on here do it ..
Good Luck .

PS

I forgive you for

I am confused and cannot distinguish capital and lower case letters from one another .
But failing that I am an Idealistic extrovert which probably explains why I haven't done any housework lately and spend too much time wondering why they have moved the fruit and veg around in Somerfields .

[shaneystar2]

Haha ....you really caught me on an off day there !
I am not generally such a bitch !
But I do spend a lot of time catching up on housework and getting fazed in Somerfields !

Hi Shaney ... just looked in and seen your post, but see you have been ably looked after by SpiderPig.

I've also finished, but wasn't initially too happy with 24d, but have now confirmed the answer. Yes it probably was easier this month, but still sufficiently challenging!

Do either of you subscribe to the Times Crossword Club?

I can recommend the TLS Crossword. Its worth �40 and must have less entries than the average Saturday Times Crossword.

It's also very doable with any passable literary knowledge and the sort of Google skills required of The Generalist.

I've only just discovered it recently myself.

Hi S ..hope you are well and Mum ...
Yes ..I had to search around for that one too.
All done now so I shall be off to my bed before I go Google eyed ....goodnight and thank you.

No I don't subscribe to any of the online crossword clubs .
I have got subscriptions to a couple puzzle books but that's
all .I was actually thinking of asking for a subscription for one of the newspaper ones for Christmas this year from my more affluent sons ! So will keep that one in mind .

[SpiderPig]

I would say The Times crossword subscription offers great value for money for prize crosswords.

There's the Saturday Crossword, The Sunday Times Crossword, the Mephisto, the Monthly Club Crossword, the TLS, The Times Jumbo ( cryptic ), The Times Jumbo 2 ( General Knowledge ), the regular Acrostic puzzles, the Listener ( which is a little bit beyond me as yet ) etc etc.

Sounds like the perfect present to me !
