Listener 4136 - Cross-reference by Nudd

Rapidly closing in on this having now got over two thirds of the grid filled, but not yet the thematic creation. I particularly liked 23D, but perhaps that's just me. A fun debut (I think). Many...

Listener Crossword 4135 Travellers by The Tall'n

Making good progress with this. Just got the 10 lines to draw. Lots of thematic material (and lots of fun)

Listener 4134: Cruciverbalism by Poat

Thank you, Poat. Quite pretty, but not tough enough to keep me away from the garden for too long this fine weekend. I have to admit I had to rely on the phrase to get me started on the bottom...

Listener 4130 Rattle by Augeus

I see that trux and Starwalker have posted already, elsewhere. As I did, they quickly found the quotation and are now working hard.

Listener 4106 A Change of Clothing by Elgin

A step up in difficulty here. We've floundered our way to a complete grid with crime fighters, an item of clothing and a set of villains, though I am not sure which one is the appropriate one to...

Listener Crossword 4104: Merchandise by Adam

I have a nice full grid, but not a clue what's going on. I don't want to know what the solution is, just that someone out there has seen a regular pattern (or whatever) that makes sense of the thing....

Listener 4102 Something's Brewing by Poat

Do I get to call firsties this week? I thought this was a nice puzzle. It was a lot easier to get the keyword than I thought it might be, and once you have that everything falls into place pretty...

Listener 4101 - Primordial by Viking

Oh dear, that was far too easy! A quick trawl through my Dictionary of Interesting Numbers and a short jigsaw puzzle.

Listener 4100: Table-turning by Kea

This is what the listener is all about. As soon as I saw Kea's name at the top I knew this was going to be good. This was a real challenge, the like we have been missing recently. Masterful...

Listener Crossword 4099: Double Devilry by Pointer

A nice challenge and a clever construction, but as you can see, a quick finish. I'm interested to know whether others see what to do before or after discerning the 10 letter word. Cheers to Pointer,...

Listener 4098: Language Balancing by Schadenfreude

A fine piece of craftsmanship from Schadenfreude: I especially like the fact that "altered words consist only of real words" after a few recently that have included gibberish in the finished...

Listener 4097: Half-Thyme by Dipper

In a way typical of what we expect from Dipper, although harder than recent efforts. Initially a quick start developed into a much slower finish. I enjoyed tracking down the herbs but I thought the...

Listener 4096: Some Assembly Required by Mr E

After part of the theme dawned on me half way through filling in the grid, i was thinking we were in for another stale ending. Luckily the ending took a fair amount of decoding, and it was very...

Listener 4085: Atom Smasher by Llig

Though there's another thread on on 4095, and I've contributed to it, this might help get the conversation started, though I suspect not a long one. There really isn't much to this (sorry Llig, and...

Listener 4094: Wet Wet Wet by Lato

A much bigger challenge, I thought this week, with some very clever plays involved in creating the group members. Lots of lovely pennies dropping all the way through. I'd be interested to see how soon...

Listener Crossword 4093 Times Group by Colleague

Another Friday, another Listener and another new setter (or is it). After a very straightforward grid fill, I shall now retire for a glass of something to consider the preamble. These easy fills are...

An entertaining puzzle, much less difficult than it might appear at first glance. Thanks, Bufo

Listener Crossword 4079

This week's offering is Sine Qua Non by Shackleton. No one should panic that I have finished it already - I've only just read the preamble and feel the need for a lie down in a darkened room. No doubt...

Listener 4062 - Letter Squares by Elap

No - i haven't finished it, so get up off the floor. I just wondered what people approaching it thought of the bit in the preamble "so solvers must deduce how many complete cells each answer...

Listener 4052 - Question by Aedites

This could get tough. Change ringing and lots of cold solving. Nice and meaty at first glance
