I had a bit of a shock this morning. The method that I’ve used to paste the clues seamlessly from the Puzzles site into my Word document for the last 15 years doesn’t work with the new site; that resulted in a lot of fiddling about and swearing. So, if you find any typos in the clues here it’s down to me.
Kcit has given us a puzzle containing his usual large ration of abbreviations and lots of letter deletions. On the plus side he’s been very sparing with the number of anagrams. Thanks to him.
Please leave a comment telling us how you fared and what you liked about the puzzle.
