Just read the letters down the left column of the completed solution and up the right column – they spell out the phrase “Turn Over a New Leaf”.

It’s not part of the crossword – just a flourish – similar to an Easter Egg in a computer game or DVD.

Will someone please spell out this Nina business for me?

I liked 19a (listed as 18a above).

Happy 2008 to you all.

Happy New Year fellow bloggers, setters and solvers.

Here’s to lots of ‘mundane’ Mondays in 2008!

What is the Nina in this crossword?
