Nice straightforward clues, and a theme that never fails to raise a smile. Familiarity with the theme, guessed early, made is possible to see where some clashes were going to be before both...

Lovely puzzle by the Listener editors (Tiburon and Kea). Impressive to think these excerpts were published in the paper. I was thinking as I was solving it that I am still in need of a cryptic clue,...

That was good fun. I have to admit that I used the extra words to deduce the first six relevant entries, and only then sat down to work out what the husband and wife had been up to. I suppose it might...

A very satisfying puzzle this one, and thankfully easier to make inroads into than last week's. Everything fell into place quite quickly once I had enough answers to have a go at grid entry. I like...

Six answers entered after six hours of solving - anyone else doing better?

Thanks, Emu, for a well-constructed homage a great work of art. Not among the more difficult Listeners, but that does not detract from its excellence. I assume the ambiguity of one of the abbreviated...

Quite an appropriate puzzle given the weather we have been having this week ! Relieved that it didn't take too long to crack as we have the pleasure of another Schadenfreude puzzle to occupy us...

That was a lot of fun. It took me longer than it should have to spot what was going on in the Group B clues, even though I had seen what the instruction told me to do elsewhere. Many thanks, Harpy,...

How good to see what I believe is a new name and a relatively rare device (those migrating letters). We have enjoyed this. Many thanks to Malva.

In my version, it's terrible, but thanks to Towser for raising a smile....

I didn't even think of trying to fit the entries into the grid until I had cold-solved all but six. A couple of false starts, but as usual with this sort of puzzle once a few had slotted together the...

What a nicely clued and thematically amusing start to the year. We laughed at the phrase. Many thanks to Kruger. A Happy New Year to all our fellow AB threaders.

I'm surprised that there isn't a thread up for this yet. (Apologies if there is one) I started on it this afternoon, having only returned to the UK this morning. Just a couple of loose ends to tie up,...

A very entertaining and well-constructed puzzle. Hard to believe how much the setter fit into such a small space. One minor quibble. The thematic subject of the puzzle, as described by its Wikipedia...

A pleasant unity to the whole puzzle. Clues were not too challenging, but there was plenty in the end-game to keep the interest up. Many thanks, Poat....

I did enjoy the way the thematic material all slotted together, however I think the obscurity of some of the geographical references was pushing the boundaries of fair play rather. Thanks Salamanca....

Anything I say will set off yet another argument about easy and hard Listeners, so I'll leave it at thanking Piccadilly for a brief spell of entertainment....

Well I suppose it's possible that I've gone a little wrong somewhere (made a couple of mistakes in counting in the across clues first time round, for instance), although I don't think that the...
