Thanks Muffet. It's usually the one that is staring you in the face that you fall down on.
I'll have to check out the other two and amend accordingly.

Thank You Kayakamina
I had SWAMPS to start with and amended it to Swampy when I reasoned it out correctly.
Also found the SKIER later.
Silly little mistakes.
Did you enjoy it or was it a little too easy?
It's about the best of what's out there in these here parts.

Hi . I didn't have too much difficulty with it.

As I told P, I used to desperately miss the English style crosswords when I was living in your part of the world and never got used to the strictly synonym based puzzles set by American compilers.

You have found a cryptic one locally so there are some?

Greetings K

There must be more because there is a man from Ottawa comes on line occasionally looking for answers to what seems to be a pretty difficult one. I don't know what newspaper or magazine he is reading, but he's on to a good one.
I'm receiving The Week from Pauline, Everyman from Pat, and the Telegraph cryptic from Julia - but I find the clues in the latter very very obscure. However, the Lord loves a trier and He knows I'm trying to fit in as many as I can now that I have a source. It was a drought before I met you all on AB so I can understand how you felt when isolated in a kind of crossword No Man's land.
Take care.
