Listener 4156 V by Parsnip

An enjoyable puzzle, but nothing too challenging. Strange that no clue for 4a, at least not in my version. Anyway all worked out fine in the end. Thanks Parsnip

Listener Crossword 4155 Body of Evidence by Jacques

Interesting this one in that I know what the end result should be, with the evident truth clearly displayed, but I can't see how best to get there: I have a number of viable options depending on what...

Listener 4154: Downsizing by Dilwitch

Another debut! I am usually not one for Listener's where there's no PDM etc but I enjoyed this one. Difficulty enhanced by the difference in definition and wordplay together with some tough clues....

Listener Crossword 4153: Rhythm for a Dance by Brimstone

I think I have it, though one element, the two letter replacement, and one additional word entry are as yet unconfirmed. I'm still trying to justify everything, which looks like being a bit of a slog,...

Listener 4152: Inn Joke by Mr Lemon

I don't get it! (the joke that is) I am glad it was easy this week compared to last week, but I am not impressed. The title, the rejoinder, the connection between the quotation? I suppose none of it...

Listener 4150 - Garden Scraps by Colleague

A rapid grid fiil brings the reward of a visit to the sherry decanter before attempting to make sense of the preamble. It's a risky strategy, but someone has to try it. On reflection, I think I boobed...

A pretty straightforward solve this week, as 6 or 8 cold solves revealed the likely method of entry. But, a well constructed puzzle, and a nice break after last week's brainbuster. Thank you Waterloo,...
