Independent 7,253 by Scorpion
Posted by Simon Harris on 14th January 2010
I got a little bit psyched out last time I blogged a Scorpion, but thankfully this one was a bit more manageable. It was still a challenge though, and there are perhaps one or two liberties taken in the cluing, so it’ll be interesting to hear how other solvers got on.

Financial Times 13,283 / Orense
Posted by smiffy on 14th January 2010
Nothing to frighten the horses here, but there are a couple of clues that just seem flawed or – at best – clumsy to me.
I couldn’t help but feel that this was a case of being “better to arrive than to travel”, rather than vice versa.

Financial Times 13,274 – Crux
Posted by Uncle Yap on 14th January 2010
Monday Prize Crossword on 4 January 2010 No great surprises in this FT week-opener. I simply love 9Down which, in my book, is going to be a classic.

Financial Times 13,273 by Cincinnus

Prize puzzle from the Weekend FT of January 2nd
Here’s another great puzzle from Cincinnus. I especially liked 1A, 29A and 5D. I solved the puzzle fairly quickly except for 19A and 6D which took me a good while. I don’t remember hearing the term “tail-ender” before (6D).
