I was away for the weekend and took my Guardian with me. I was, naturally, amazed and disappointed to find the previous day’s Araucaria’s puzzle when I opened it to solve the crossword! – but the less said about that the better, so soon after the Eroica fiasco a couple of weeks ago – also, unfortunately, in a prize puzzle.
