Listener 4138: The X-factor by IOA

I looked down the list of letters thinking: no clue lengths, no clue numbers, no idea which is across or even, 26 numbers to choose from. Aargh! Luckily, once it gets going, things speed up and to a...

Listener 4137: Frightened Catherine by Ifor

An enjoyable Listener début from Ifor (although a setter that I have solved in the Magpie, EV and IQ). I was wondering why this needed to be a carte blanche as I was solving it, but the little...

Listener 4134: Cruciverbalism by Poat

Thank you, Poat. Quite pretty, but not tough enough to keep me away from the garden for too long this fine weekend. I have to admit I had to rely on the phrase to get me started on the bottom...

No, not completed yet, but I have found the quotations and this changes from hard grind to pleasure.

Listener 4131 - Carte Blanche en Tore by Ten-Four

Easiest one of the year for me by a long chalk. Am I getting smarter, or are these Listeners getting simpler?

Listener 4127

Has no one started a thread? Is it because people are a little bit disappointed with this one? Perhaps there is some clever twist that I haven't seen.

Listener 4122, Heart by Phi

Thought I'd start a thread for one. Rather relieved that the Friday club are quite on this one. Have a smattering of answers but a long way to go. Happy solving all!

Listener No 4120, Cross Country by MynnoT

Listener 4114 - Three Square by Elap

No - I haven't quite finished it yet. Still, one of the joys of a Listener comes when you learn something new, and primitive triangles are new to me. I assume that the numbers in the threes are also...

Listener 4111: News Quiz by Stan

Listener 4106 A Change of Clothing by Elgin
