I'd usually fold the Telegraph twice so that the crossword grid and clues are neatly on my lap.  I'd get a coffee and a pen and make a start.  I rarely complete it without help from here in     AB.

Yesterday and today I tried on a laptop.  Somehow, it doesn't seem the same.  Old habits, I suppose.

I'll cancel my subscription later this week.

Could you not print off a copy of the on-line one, Sandy? That's what I used to do. Can't stand doing them on a machine.

I use the Telegraph app daily and do many other puzzles on my iPad or online, but I still love the "feel" of paper and pen. 

There is nothing better than the paper version, and the EV on a sunday is not available on-line. Plus it is the height of arrogance to attempt do it with a pen and not to have  Chambers right by your side!

^. That's a good idea.  I'll give it a try.

Pen? I always use a pencil.

Tilly, when I was at college (many moons ago) I had a project marked down a notch for using pencil. Apparently I wasn't showing the 'courage of my convictions'. Always used a pen since. 😊
