Ho ho ho, Mac...!

Dunno, Danny. I've noticed that the timings have been a bit odd recently. I appeared to have completed a Cryptic in 59 seconds the other day...

48 years is pushing it a bit, though!

lol

I finished mine one minute before starting it (apparently) and only got 50 points for it! The timing shown was very similar to BabsM's one.

MX and HNY everyone

Perhaps it's seasonal overexcitement, Danny!

Wishing everybody a very Happy Christmas and heaven help us all in the New Year!

Good morning Dickie. How do you get days etc? Mine just shows minutes & seconds

dannyk13

My cryptic is showing 00:10:30.

Dickiedot

it's a mystery Danny, a software glitch, hope they sort it before the Christmas break, it presages further problems methinks.

dannyk13

Maybe, I see that the fiendish Elgar is setting crosswords at Christmas.I am stocking up with aspirin.

dannyk13

Just had an e-mail from the Telegraph.They are aware of the problem and the techies are working on it.

Somehow, Danny, that doesn't fill me with confidence, remembering how long it took to sort things out a few years back!

dannyk13

Babs, just got my cheque.That must be a record,two days from notification of win.

Question Author

Wasn't that the Mail, Danny...? Very impressive! My DTel win was 27 November so maybe the cheque will turn up before Easter (provided it's not too early next year...).
