EV 1033 - Game Money by Warbler

Straight forward puzzle but I just don't get the title? Not that it makes any difference to the solution but any enlightenment?

EV 1030 - Swimming Aid by Rustic

Not too difficult with a little twist towards the end - quite enjoyable. However yet again 2 entry lengths are incorrect!

EV 1024 - Two Drifters by Nudd

Got there in the end after a muddled start and it all fell into place quickly at the finish. I enjoyed this puzzle and for me it had just the right amount of difficulty. I love EV Sundays!
