Listener 4575

An enjoyable workout, albeit that we spotted the thematic words virtually from the off. Back to finish off 4574, having been away most of the week.

Yet another Saturday (partially) ruined by a pretentious setter. I mean I'm not entirely thick but I just can't figure out the instructions. Can't they just give us a straightforward crossword as we...

Listener Crossword No. 4568 Howsat! By Skylark

Not a bad puzzle although some of the 3 letter entries made it difficult to ascertain the extra letter. Initially I had a perfectly acceptable alternative answer for 29ac. Not my kind of theme at all....

Neatly constructed puzzle with plenty of guidance built in to get you to the theme, and find the features to be highlighted, although one of them is not too easy to find in Chambers. A lot easier than...

Listener Crossword No 4561 One Or The Other

Listener No 4557

Either the thread is hiding again or I'm up here first, which I find a bit unlikely. Either I made a complete dog's dinner of this or it was quite difficult to sort out. Devotees might be on to this...
