With Aardvark I find getting the solutions easy but the explanations why more difficult.

Great stuff from Monk. Challenging as always, new words and unfamiliar definitions of old ones with plenty of misdirection to send us down the wrong track. Thank you Monk.

I don’t think I have blogged a puzzle by Gaff before, quite an experience. There is loads of stuff in here to go at. I’m not sure if I have spotted it all, maybe there are some experts on the subject who can find some more links to the anniverary being commemorated.

Enjoyable, inventive, topical and a little cheeky; Paul doing what he does best.

Guardian Prize Puzzle 25,820 by Shed

I found this a bit lacklustre. There was nothing actually wrong with any of the clues but overall the puzzle seemed to lack a little sparkle. Normally I find puzzles from Shed entertaining and more of a challenge. Maybe I was just not in the right mood today.

Neo is new to me.
I am standing in for scchua who is away at the moment, so it is nice to get some new setters to blog. Very enjoyable and mostly steady going except for the SW corner which took me longer than the rest of the crossword put together. Looking back I can’t see why as the solutions are all there waiting to be found, I just couldn’t seem to get started. Thank you Neo.
