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 4303: Qvwke Vbcfa By Nutmeg

Good fun, with sufficiently straightforward clues to render it not too challenging. I think 'across the grid' must be interpreted as 'all the way across the grid' to resolve ambiguities in entering...

Listener 4302: When All Else Fails By Ottorino

Well, I paid my subscription in the end, and a puzzle like this makes it worth while. Mind you, I don't know how anybody could complete it without an early PDM allowing almost 3/4 of the grid to be...

Oh what a challenging one. I don't know how anyone gets to the full grid (as we have just done) without the help of devices. Now we are enjoying sorting out the godly mix up. Many thanks, Stick Insect...

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...

Listener 4293 : Shrub By Aedites

Hurrah - a relatively easy solve after last week's more difficult offering, so no interruption to tomorrow's Eurovision! I rather liked the final PDM. Thanks Aedites.

Listener 4292: Going Out In Style By Homer

That was quite a work-out. I admit to firing up the spreadsheet to help with the sorting, and once I'd got the theme and saw what had to be revealed I left a few loose ends till this morning. Some...

Listener 4288 A Birthday -A-B-C(E-F) By Kevgar

Very ingenious construction; lovely use of theme right down to the title. Cluing not too difficult, and plenty of help from normal answers. It helped that the theme was familiar. Thanks, KevGar.

A Birthday -A-B-C(E-F) By Kevgar

I enjoyed that (I had a slight sense of deja vu over the theme, but if I'm right I hope nobody will give the details until after the closing date). I did it in rather an odd order. With about half the...

Listener 4287: Primed To Begin By Spud

A pretty easy solve, with clear advice coming from the extra letters. My preference is for a more formal style of invitation, but there I'm just old-fashioned. Not much else to say, really. Thank you,...

A nice playful offering by Mr E. Nothing too difficult in the clues, but I found spotting the way the other four fitted took far longer than it should have. Luckily I spotted the final one fairly...
