Welcome back to Gazza who seems to have taken a leaf from the Chancellor’s book with the first two clues in this crossword to bash the elderly! Is it me, or is he wearing sturdier footwear when setting crosswords these days? Not quite hob-nailed boots but certainly no pink fluffy slippers today.
I greatly enjoyed solving this crossword. Many thanks to our setter for a fine Saturday afternoon challenge. Drop by and let us have your thoughts.

A welcome back to Gazza with an enjoyable crossword with lots to amuse and entertain. It was maybe not a cheeky as some of his earlier ones and had more than its fair share of abbreviations and remove the final letter of a word clues. However, this did not detract from the fun of solving it and there were lots of penny drop moments. My favourite clues are highlighted in blue.

A crossword by Gazza
BD Rating – Difficulty *** – Enjoyment ****
Apologies for the delay in reviewing but I had assumed that Prolixic would be doing his usual duty and only remembered in the early hours this morning that he was on his holidays. I feel the best way to recommend this great Gazza puzzle is to copy what I said to him when I test solved it “This is without doubt the best crossword I have solved today (I would even go so far as to say for several days)…. It has just the right amount of brain-stretching, d’oh moments and some really great clues.” I hope you all enjoyed it too.
