Monday Prize Crossword/Jun 10

In a day and age that the FT’s Saturday Prize has become much harder (mainly due to Mudd gearing up a bit – IMO, happily so) Dante et al stand tall to represent the other side of the spectrum. This was another user-friendly crossword which one can find here.

Posted by Gaufrid on 19th June 2013

Gaufrid.

When PeeDee asked me to stand in for him today my initial though was “I hope I get a puzzle that I can get my teeth into” and I even considered the possibility of it being a Monk, one of my favourite setters. I was not disappointed!

Ringo.

Cryptic crosswords don’t come much more straightforward than this morning’s offering from Jason (a  hiccup at 27ac. excepted). Smart, tidy, by-the-book and breezily enjoyable – thank-you, Jason.

Sil van den Hoek.

Monday Prize Crossword/June 3

A pleasant puzzle by Crux which contained a bit more cryptic-flavoured definitions than usual.  But as my best friends know, it is perhaps my favourite device …….. :)  [is it?].  That said, I fear here there (but not everywhere) I can do with a little help from my friends.

PeeDee.

Super themed puzzle from Gozo but consumed in a bit of a rush today as I was very late getting started, a shame that I did not have time to savour this puzzle more.  Thank you Gozo.

This was a really enjoyable puzzle for me – not too easy as to be over quickly, and not too difficult as to require long pauses.  On the other hand, progress was smooth and even right through.  Thanks, Gurney.  Definitions are underlined in the clues. [[The pictures at the bottom have unidentified links to the puzzle. Please enclose any comments on them in double brackets. Thank you.]]
