Listener 4497: 'catechism' By Tnap

The clue-solving was tough work in places and I spent an age somewhat baffled ... but a nice couple of PDMs brought it all to an enjoyable conclusion. Thanks tnap :-)

Listener 4490 - Rejob By Botox

I came to have a look to see what others thought of this one, but it looks like I'm the first - which must also be a first. The grid fill for Grid A was a bit of a slog, but I thought there was a nice...

Listener No 4422: Buried Treasure By Poat

Sod's law dictated that the last couple of clues that resisted my attack included clashes, so I had to resort to reverse logic from a guess at the instruction to nail those. It took me a while to get...

Listener 4419 Common Acid Test By Stan

Well certainly not as hard as last week, but still was more challenging than I anticipated.

The Listener 4370: Hefbeet By Yorick

I am surprised that there seem to be no other posts, as I am usually quite slow at solving. Anyway, an enjoyable workout from Yorick, although one that required a lot of careful cross-checking.

Listener 4352 What’S Missing? By Artix

Excellent puzzle. Totally misinterpreted the first missing item I found, then spent about three hours looking for eight more similar items, before realising I had led myself well up the garden path....

Ev 1170: Fallen By Nudd

Good evening EVers, An excellent offering by Nudd. I found the quotation more or less by accident. I had a substantial section of the NW corner populated. That also meant that the "fallen" words...

Listener 4334 By Brimstone

Much easier than it first appears, if you know where to start. Thanks Brimstone....

Have I missed it all? Everyone saying how easy it was and not bothering to post? Well, I'm obviously stupid, because I'm finding it a very hard slog!...

Listener No 4327 The Alcoholic Baseball Player By Waterloo

Hoho!! Cracker-style literary jokes from Mr Waterloo ... some suitably making one groan, others raising a broad smile: I particularly liked 40ac. Gentle romp. Happy New Year to all ABers and many...

Listener 4326, Coincidence By Sabre

I've searched bu apparently there is no Friday club for this very difficult offering by Sabre. I just got 17acr so I've finally finished. Phew! One of the hardest of the year, for sure. Thanks Sabre!...

Listener No 4323 Artix Onepo

Oh but this was tough. Has Artix managed to silence the Friday Club? Indeed we struggled but what a cunningly constructed grid and convincing finale. Many thanks, Artix for yet another masterpiece of...

Listener 4311 - Carte Blanche By Chalicea

This is an excellent example of a carte blanche puzzle; thanks Chalicea! However, I think there are eight thematic clues, not seven......

Listener Crossword 4307 - Spiral Of Salami And Walnuts By Wan

What a delight, on another theme about which I was previously ignorant. Would have been much tougher without the generosity of the setter. Particularly liked 33 down. Thanks Wan....

Listener 4306: Hosta La Vista By Dipper

All done, unless there are alternative (and possibly more interesting) meanings to the fourth and third last words of the instruction.

Listener 4305: Not A Blocked Grid By Lavatch

Another excellent construction. The top right corner held me up for a while, but once the penny dropped I could sit back and admire Lavatch's skill -- many thanks....

Listener 4304 Ozzie Warning

We just had our penny drop moment and, with an almost full grid, have to make sure that we enter the correct bars - quite a task, and quite a feat, Ozzie, thanks. This has been most enjoyable.

Listener 4300: 22 Across By Calmac

I suppose it had to come -- I mean both the theme and an easy one after a few gems. I am sure there could have been something more exciting by way of an end-game, but thanks anyway, Calmac....

Listener 4296: Playgroup By Ifor

One of those frustrating ones where the last four clues took as long to sort out as the rest of the clues and the theme altogether. Apart from those four, it was all pretty clear, so thanks Ifor. I...
