EV 904

The answer fell out very quickly this week, particularly the theme from the down clues. I am turning my hand to The Listener for the first time, but it seems to be all numbers, not quite what I was expecting! Anyway nothing better to do on a filthy rainy day.

Sorry, that's a copy of EV from the Telegraph, not Mephisto from the Times - thank you !

Hello N & Cer's all! You may not believe it but I am in CC again this week rather than DC. Strangely I had been checking an academic piece on the french Polisher's 'side-table' so to speak, and the FP sort of leapt out and grabbed me by the throat after a few down clues.
When are you down in L copelander and is it Opera or Ballet for the R & J? We are going down for the 30 year hard labour celebrations, which include at trip to the Van Gogh, Jenkins the Armed Man at the RFH and a meet up with a no of friends both for lunch and dinner.
Any suggestions for a celebratory meal a deaux for the actual night - not Kensington please, we are staying in Bloomsbury and not Maggie thinghy please DocHH, menu not to my taste, too much offal for a pescatarian. Always Le Cafe des Amis at the opera house - you might try that copelander, it's just round the corner.

Just found this thread. Glad everyone else found it easy. This was the first one I have ever completed before Sunday lunch! What's the betting next week will be a stinker?
