Oh but this was tough. Has Artix managed to silence the Friday Club? Indeed we struggled but what a cunningly constructed grid and convincing finale. Many thanks, Artix for yet another masterpiece of...

What a brilliant use of the circular grid. This has been a remarkable piece of compiling and an extremely difficult puzzle which became easier as we progressed (suddenly dramatically so!)....

Thanks to Gos for featuring one of my favourites. I did think, though, that many of the clues were Times Cryptic (or even the easy cryptic) standard rather than Listener. It must have been hard to get...

Oh, what a struggle that was! Took me far too long to twig how to get started, and then progress was at snail's pace. Can't say that I'm a great fan (bring back last week's them any time!!) but it...

Another cracker! We thought this was wonderful but how very tough. Obviously the editors are getting their own back on those who whinged that last week's lovely creation was too easy. We had pdm after...

What a pleasure to see a Kea puzzle but what a tough solve. No, not really opening the Friday club as I still have to produce my final grid and there is some demanding word play to sort out but many...

I was expecting a Kea by the end of the year, but I was surprised to see a Kea numerical This was an easy numerical (under 1 hour solve) and I am glad it was, partly because of the stinker E grade...

Judging from the dearth of postings, others are also finding this less than a walkover - pretty much as foretold. I'm still working on paragraph one of the preamble and an odd assortment of answers....

Anyone else have a problem with too many extras of a certain letter? Very enjoyable puzzle, though haven't entirely understood all of the thematic treatments. Thanks Lavatch (and if solvers enjoyed...
