The usual blend of interesting words and clues which I found this easier than usual today, apart from one clue that has me stumped.
Do any Welsh speakers out there fancy having a quick look at 3 down for me? Thank you Azed.

A straightforward and not too difficult puzzle without it being bland or boring. Having blogged a lot of puzzles of all types over the years I am coming to appreciate how hard it is for a setter to get both of these elements right at the same time. Thank you Hypnos.

An interesting and somewhat special puzzle from Gozo. Sorry the blog is a little later than usual but it is holiday time, snowing heavily and the usual schedule has gone to pot.

Played with a straight bat, a safe pair of hands and no tampering. Thank you Bradman.

Excellent as ever. On many of these clues the solution became apparent long before the explanation, there is one that still eludes me. Thank you Monk.
