A very good Wednesday morning from Winnipeg where we had some rain on Monday but we need a whole lot more!
As ALP said yesterday, there is some reshuffling going on. Today is my last every Wednesday blog; but as ALP also said yesterday don’t start cracking open the champagne yet. For the next while (how long is a piece of string?) I will be sharing Wednesdays with a new to mid-week back page blogger who is starting next week. And, I will continue to solve half of a Dada puzzle on my Saturday evenings and prepare the Sunday blog 😉
For me, etc (I have to say that for Terence), much more like a Wednesday puzzle than we have had recently except for the absence of the Reverend W A Spooner. I was partially defeated by 2a – so any sensible suggestions on how ‘brother’s’ fits in would be appreciated (thanks to Maggie and CS for the enlightenment). I have managed to find another pair of half crowns at the back of my sock drawer and they are telling me that this is probably a Twmbarlwm production.
