EV 1044: Seven Things by Wiglaf

Good afternoon all. I haven't come across Wiglaf in EV before; I thought at first it was a clever anagram, but obviously I don't know my Beowulf. An entertaining crossword I thought, and some good fun...

EV 981 Pub Crawl by Shark

Good morning all - I can't see a thread yet on this fine crossword by Shark. A difficult one, I thought, but lots of clever touches, and crammed with thematic material. I've still one or two bits of...

MM Links November 2010 [Week 3]

Good morning to all MM linkers (that is, those who have decided not to hibernate now that winter is well and truly approaching). This week's preamble will be fairly brief, as I have spent most of this...

MM Links December [Week 1]

Good Morning, AB-Linkers! This is Sheila (aka slaney) ? and apparently dubbed by crofter as Lady Slaney. That's OK as a working title, but I DO have moments when I'm far from ladylike. One such was...
