BD Rating – Difficulty ***** – Enjoyment *****
Having had a very late night on Electionwatch and trying to make sense of the whole thing. I was grateful to Notabilis for giving me something to take my mind off things. This was a magnificent puzzle, with fine tough cluing leading to a considerable amount of satisfaction as the last answer entered. Anagrams are suitably masked and Notabilis is not afraid to use unusual words in the subsidiary indications. However, I am afraid that several clues defeated me.
As usual, have your say after the blog and tell us how you rated the puzzle with the star system. New visitors should know that the answers to the clues are hidden between the squiggly brackets and you should highlight the space to see the solution.
Off we go.
