Welcome back to Bufo after a long absence with a silky smooth, straightforward and satisfying crossword. It was not especially difficult but was marked out for me by the clean cluing and polished surface readings.

A highly enjoyable puzzle from Bufo this week with a special message around the perimeter for Tilsit who is recovering from major surgery. For those who want to read the message it is:
{BEST WISHES FOR A SPEEDY RECOVERY}
All of us endorse the message and it is good to hear Tilsit sounding so lively on his blog.
The puzzle itself contained several new words for me though with all credit to Bufo, the more unusual words were clearly clued. A lot of the clues included charades though as these were combined with other wordplay elements, the puzzle did not feel unbalanced.
