Listener 4291: Maxon By Schadenfreude

Mynot Listener 4290 All Write

This seemed very daunting at first with so much going on but turned into a happy romp once the device became clear, and especially when the quotation emerged. Thank you MynoT

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

Listener 4285: Now You See It By Mr E

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...

Listener 4282: Coordinated By Mr Lemon

Sad to see a farewell crossword from Mr Lemon: I had not picked up the fact that he had died. A nice puzzle to remember him by though, with lots of nice clues and a final step that had me chasing...
