Just a thought karramba.

You have asked for help with nearly every clue in this crossword and, while being happy to help, I wonder if you would not be better off mastering standard puzzles before moving on to the more advanced ones?

Good luck K

I am pretty new at this type of crossword...cryptic...and am trying to pit my skills against the pros now to see if I am thinking along the same lines...I study your answers and learn. This is an experiment for me and I thank you for helping out in the way you do. In fact, I have been doing quite well with the standard ones...Many thanks for the thought...we live and learn!

I know that kayakamina was not being in any way snidey, because I also wondered how it was that in a crossword with 35 clues you asked for help in about 30 of them.

Would you not be better off trying a daily newspaper, such as the Telegraph, where the solution is given the next day?
