Listener No 4435: The Harmony Of Ratios By Ifor

I was lucky with getting the theme fairly quickly (I suppose I've been indoctrinated over the past week or so), but even without that the clues needing two letters cast out would not have been too...

Listener No. 4428: Classic Fm Track By Aelfre

A nice brief escape from reality, not at all frightening. A good one for beginners at the Listener. Many thanks, Aelfre. Main problem is going to be writing small enough!

Listener No. 4421: Post-It Note By Tramp

Another entertaining puzzle, with nice treatment of the thematic elements. Nothing too challenging, but the extra words were quite smoothly integrated into the clues. I must do some checking, to see...

When I click on "click here for the printable version" button, I only get the grid. Anyone else having the problem? Please post the URL if you have figured out how to print. Thanks....

Listener No 4398: Boxing Characters By Mountain Ledges

This was real fun. I'd have struggled with the objects without Google (I understand that other search engines are available). The clues were generally fairly straightforward, though I was held up for...

Listener No 4397: We'll Always Be Together By Flying Tortoise

Thanks, Flying Tortoise (glad you weren't used in the experiment -- if it really took place). Nice to have a hands-on puzzle again. A fairly straightforward set of clues, and very clear instructions....

Listener 4395: 6 Across By Shackleton

I thought I might be in for a bit of grid-staring, but the penny dropped after about half an hour. The amount of thematic material and the construction of the messages is most impressive. A worthy...

Listener No 4394: Against Expectatios By Duck

I had to do a lot of cold solving before I could be sure which were the rogues, but once they were identified it all fell into place quite neatly. A few words to add to the vocabulary, too. Many...

Listener No 4390: Castaways By External

That was good fun. I have to admit that I used the extra words to deduce the first six relevant entries, and only then sat down to work out what the husband and wife had been up to. I suppose it might...

Listener 4389: Teeing Off By Nutmeg

A very satisfying puzzle this one, and thankfully easier to make inroads into than last week's. Everything fell into place quite quickly once I had enough answers to have a go at grid entry. I like...

Listener No 4367: Identity Crisis By Sabre

An excellent challenge from Sabre, and certainly had to use all the available information to make headway on this. Full quotation and author only revealing itself right at the end.

Listener No 4366: Ego-Trips By Llig

Sorry to be a bit repetitive, but this is just not a stiff enough challenge. Lots of very easy clues, and no real endgame to speak of....

Listener No 4365: General Intelligence By Calmac

What a neat grid construction. I found finding the quotation a bit tedious, but the rest of the puzzle was a total delight, with some cleverly concealed misprints. Many thanks, Calmac....

Listener No. 4357: Aft By Nutmeg

Some fairly straightforward clues, with a lucky guess at 1d and 27d leading inevitably to 17, made this a quick solve. I was held up for a while by 14d and 24d, but I'm looking forward to a bit of...

Listener No 4355: Shorthand Crosses By Aragon

A lovely construction, with fairly straightforward clues. I hadn't come across the verse, and have only been able to locate the vital couplet -- if the rest of it is available I hope somebody will...

Listener 4353 A Ghost Story By Kevgar

All over rather too quickly for my liking, but I enjoyed the join-up-the-dots picture-forming. Clues perhaps a bit easy for this outlet. Anyhow, now plenty of time for tennis and/or sweltering in the...

Listener No. 4345: Essentials By Samuel

The length of the preamble was a bit off-putting, but taking my courage in both hands and plunging in showed enough fairly straightforward clues to be able to get started. The last step was a bit...

Listener 4302: When All Else Fails By Ottorino

Well, I paid my subscription in the end, and a puzzle like this makes it worth while. Mind you, I don't know how anybody could complete it without an early PDM allowing almost 3/4 of the grid to be...
