Good morning everyone - not inspiring out there today, windy and a bit sticky, it should be raining but it's not ...maybe it will arrive tonight and give the gardens etc a really good drink !! Not too...
I think that it's one of the trickier weeks this week but you lot rarely agree with me! (That's the story of my life really, out of step with everyone else for most of the time!). So, as I scored a...
Good morning everyone - we're 'enjoying' a very mild pleasant day here when in fact it's meant to be raining so not sure whether to enjoy or not !! BOM has promised rain today for the best part of a...
I got the first 5 right then, despite having read the story, I screwed up on Q6 and I'd no idea at all (and couldn't guess correctly) on Q7. So that's a FIVE for me on what seemed to be a relatively...
Good morning everyone - the sun is shining, no wind and it's just gorgeous out there plus it'll be even better tomorrow .....yippee !! Of course it won't last but I'm going to enjoy it while it does...

It's several months since I last compiled one of my crosswords but, since there still seem to be several people mad enough to attempt them, I've just finished another one. For the uninitiated, my...
Good morning everyone - I've been out in the sunshine pulling out weeds and enjoying the warmth after a pretty wet week, and we have another ahead of us, but at least everything is getting a very good...
There's a freebie question this week (where, rather obviously in my opinion, all three responses are correct), so my score of 4 isn't that fantastic - but I'll settle for it anyway!...
Good morning everyone - not the brightest of days today, just overcast and rather cool, but at least no heavy rain and fog up in the hills - glad I'm not driving anywhere up there, it sounds scary !!...
Fairly easy this week, I think, especially as there's a 'freebie' question (where all three responses are correct), so my score of 4 isn't particularly spectacular and it should be easy enough for...
Good morning everyone - lovely mild sunny day here in South Oz, hoping to finish off my roses this afternoon, before the next bout of the wet and windy stuff turns up !! Firt batch of links look...
