The usual cordon bleu offering from Loroso. Plenty of entertaining surfaces and ambitious, but fair, wordplay. A few of the answer are at the more arcane end of the spectrum that we usually encounter in the FT, but I hesitate at labelling any of them outrageously obscure (even 22/13, which I stumbled over).

An excellent crossword from Araucaria, although one that I found very hard. A complete explanation of 1d and ideas about 22d would be very welcome :)

Prize puzzle from the Weekend FT of February 26
Two weeks ago someone asked me how long it took me to solve the puzzle. I had not kept track and had little idea of how long I had worked on it. I will not make a habit of doing so but I decided to time myself with this puzzle and recorded 43 minutes. I often take much longer.
