When two people have the same thing, idea etc one of them is likely to say snap. This derives from the children’s card game of the same name.

I didn’t understand the first half of the dd in SNAP, perhaps you can elucidate.

I realize I’m turning up late to this one, but when I saw Armonie on the website, one of my favorites, I thought it would be good for a train ride home. Only lasted a few stops, though, so it couldn’t have been too hard!

6d while this was obviously an anagram of cora happy, I’d still be sitting here now trying to work it out with only the last letter of a filled in.
5d Thought this might be plodge. plod for coppers=police but couldn’t justify ge.
10a Spanish gent =don never occured to me once
13a just too tough having to get ream out of the all the possibilites for paper.
7d My heart sank when I saw a reference to an Italian poet as I knew I had no chance with this clue.

Thanks for the blog

However, I hadn’t realised that I had made a mistake until I read your excellent blog.

Sadly, I had CANAPE for 1d without realising that CANAPÉ was called for.

I must be more careful in future or I never will win any of those amazing prizes which are sometimes available.
