These days I normally do enough of the Quick Crossword to work out the pun before I tackle the back-pager and today’s pun certainly put me in a good mood for this one. There aren’t any great difficulties here but it was enjoyable and (possibly influenced a bit by the excellent Quickie pun) I’ve given it 4* for enjoyment.
