A very good Wednesday morning from a still soggy Wincanton in flooded in places Somerset post Storm Herminia; I am hoping that my return trip to Surrey today is relatively trouble free and I will not need water wings!
For me, etc (I have to say that for Terence), another entertaining and reasonably straightforward Wednesday puzzle
At a recent event in W2, a little bird suggested to me that the Wednesday setter might be Hudson or Karla, possibly alternating. Is one of them today’s setter? As my ancestors would say – je ne sais pas. What do you think?
Candidates for favourite – 14a, 23a, 2d, 7d, and 16d.
In the hints below, the definitions are underlined. The answers are hidden under the Click here! buttons, so don’t click if you don’t want to see them.
