Wow - thanks Quizmonkey - you are well and truly on the case and much appreciated. It is a great crossword but I fear one step too much for me - ( i am more Times/Spectator level) - but I am fascinated to undrstand the answers. Thanks again

I think the previous reply sums it up but the actual crossword always has a theme and a number of additional instructions to complicate matters. It is a pity that Quizmonkey cannot get hold of a copy as he would have great fun with it and a much better chance than me of completion. To date I have achieved about half but fear I am near my limit.
