Guardian Quiptic 622 / Orlando
Posted by Big Dave on 17th October 2011
When I discover that I am to review a Quiptic by Orlando I know that I am going to enjoy the task, and I certainly wasn’t disappointed today. This puzzle contains a good selection of different types of clue, and none of them should prove too difficult for the newer solver, which is precisely the remit for a Quiptic. I particularly liked the surface readings in 18 across and 25 across. I note that it’s a double pay-day for Orlando as the regular cryptic is also one of his.

Guardian 25,455 – Orlando
Posted by Andrew on 17th October 2011
Who better than Orlando to step in on one of the occasional non-Rufus Mondays? I found this a bit tricky in places, but it all came out nicely in the end thanks to Orlando’s accurate clues and quietly elegant style.
