Thank you - I had put the kettle on in anticipation of its arrival!

[mad max]

many thanks for link ( just didn't get into last weeks )

Thanks Rapparee .. wonder how many of us will be around for Listener 40,000

Have a good weekend one and all .. I think south of the border it's going to be a very wet one, so plenty of solving time

[midazolam]

thanks rapparee

took a while to get the last 2 in the perimeter, but the main grid fill was not too challenging.

hope everyone enjoys the weekend. Hooray!

[mad max]

that was easy, might have time to have another look at last weeks.

[Rapparee]

Thanks for the comments, folks. Yes an easy one this week. The perimeter clues took the longest to do but got them all in the end.

Last week's was probably more difficult as finding confirmation in Chambers was a bit awkward. But keep plugging away, Max.

Apologies for the error in the numbering (40,000 indeed!) but I was in a huge rush on Friday afternoon and got careless!

Can someone please explain where I've gone wrong with 2dn?
I've got Y,R,E,M from checking letters.

Thanks...

Aaah, thanks gribble.

Need to do a bit of work fitting the thematic entries in....

[Patch49]

Should Googling the perimeter entries come up with a linking theme?

[Mysterons]

Googling the names individually will definitely reveal the common link before too long. I enjoyed this one - certainly not Horrid.

[Patch49]

Great hint!
