TITLE OF POSTING
This is crofter posting on behalf of Christiana:
Good morning all. This is Queen Christiana, the slightly less Cheerful One, as this is my last week of setting the MM Links. It’s been such fun and I hope this final week will prove both challenging and enjoyable for regular Linkers.
Apart from gardening, another enduring favourite in my life continues to be my love of puzzles – cryptic crosswords in particular, but all sorts of other puzzles intrigue me. One of my earliest memories is of my father attempting a huge two-page crossword in the Evening Standard and spending days in the library trying to work out whether ‘fitch’, ‘bitch’, ‘witch’ or ‘Circe’ was the correct answer to one somewhat ambiguous clue. He was a runner-up in that competition and until recently I still had the, by now, extremely dog-eared Roget’s Thesaurus that was his prize.
