Hola from Almoradà where we are continuing with wall-to-wall sunshine but it’s noticeably cooler than last week. We haven’t had a drop of rain since May which is most unusual as Sept to Nov is usually the wettest part of the year.

proXimal not as devious as I usually find today, I managed to turn the light out before 1 am and the slightly less obvious parsings seemed to come in my dreams. If I have missed any parsings or clues that you need pipe up early, as I am taking Mama Bee out for her 87th birthday. We are going to try the new York Refectory that has just opened in the old Minster Choir School, I will return later this eveningÂ
We have a nice even 14a and 14d clues today and I have hinted half, the highlight for me was the great 9a but plenty of others to admire
Here we go, Folks…
