Derek @ 4

You had me worried for a split second when your comment dropped in my in-tray as today’s Indy Prize Puzzle (24/12/11) is also by Radian and I’m blogging it.

It’s nice though to get comments 2 years after a puzzle is published!

Perhaps the Indy is going to publish a random series of puzzles online over Christmas

Duh? This just appeared on the web site!

Oh well, passed an otherwise boring afternoon. As at #2, hard but completed.

Nice of you to make contact Phi. From the timing of your message, I expect you’re spending the hols at home. There’s many an Ulsterman and woman living the good life out there, including a wheen of my wife’s relations. (Blogmeister, this I know is off-topic, but there’s nothing quite like a setters’ get-together, however distant. Perhaps our next one – are you listening Eimi? – could be themed round an international test match.) I’ve enjoyed, along with many others clearly, your weekly puzzles during the year. Keep them coming. Duggie.

Very good puzzle, quite hard, with the breakthrough being when I remembered that quote from the earlier puzzle. Favourite clues, JONESES, TSETSE, EMAIL.

OK, I did line 1 last year, so who’s going to hang the stockings in 2010?

Happy New Year, everyone.
