Listener 4861 Plain Cloth By Paddock

Some nice twists and turns in the gridfill. There are a couple of clues for which we have answers that aren't utterly compelling but everything else works out nicely.

Thanks, Paddock.

Listener 4860 Lost By Dash

A very good introductory Listener from a first time setter.

Listener 4859 - Forever By Twin

An absolutely fantastic construction.
Clues of consistent difficulty but not too opaque and an endgame with no grid stare of GWIT factor.

Thanks, Twin.

Listener 4849 - Peace At Last By Priest

An excellent puzzle to start the year. Despite the fiddly nature of finding the clues and all the other elements, an enjoyable solve.

Listener 4841 Offhand Remark By Remus

A pleasant enough entry level Listener where the only challenge was our utter lack of knowledge of the theme.

Well constructed but the clues were mostly too simple.

Listener 4836 Our Evenings By Kea

Thanks, Kea.
