A little piece of cheese and a dance with Saint Sharon always goes down well whilst completing the crossword. Thank you Rufus for providing those along with a steady reliable solve. I wish we had a need for a 21d but I fear it is brollies all the way this week.

Miffypops enjoyed a long lazy day out on Saturday with the best lunch of the year so far at The Three Tuns in Henley-On-Thames whose valiant Rugby team lost to Coventry by 10 points to 18. Some Brakspear’s Bitter was consumed. Just a small hint today. 25ac does not begin with the letter O.
