Ev 1056 Winter Festival By Kcit

So tired of seeing this theme again and again and again............ 1a revealed quickly, so I figured this would be a piece of cake, and the top was indeed quick; got bogged down in the bottom half...

Ev 1054 - Connections By Salamanca

Nothing too challenging in today's EV. Rather disappointing for me. A gripe gathering momentum for me is that I am all too often having to refer to my earlier Chambers to confirm meanings of proper...

Ev 1053 - Making A Point

If I ever knew the thematic word needed for this EV I'd long since forgotten it! I therefore found the puzzle very trying and unsatisfactory. I hope fellow EVers didn't feel the same....

Ev 1049 - Iris By Mynot

A joy to have simple preamble with no ambiguity but being picky 41 across is not in Chambers 2011. An enjoyable, straightforward EV though.

Ev 1048 Missing Title By Nutmeg

A fine puzzle which elicited a gruckle (groan + chuckle) at the final PDM. The method of entry for the 24 was fairly easily discovered and a lucky/inspired Google search led right to 11d and the...

EV 1047 - X Marks the ???? by Rustic

I thoroughly get (I think) all of this crossword except, and probably vitally, completing the blanked off area for which I have a couple of equally appropriate words. There seems to be no way to...

EV 1046 - Author by Piccadilly

Thoroughly enjoyed this puzzle. Lots going on a the same time - jumbles, extra letters, quotes and highlighting. Really kept me on my toes all the way through. I particularly liked the clear and...

EV 1044: Seven Things by Wiglaf

Good afternoon all. I haven't come across Wiglaf in EV before; I thought at first it was a clever anagram, but obviously I don't know my Beowulf. An entertaining crossword I thought, and some good fun...

EV 1036 - Approximate & Appropriate by Moordon

Surely preamble should state that replacements for parts of answers to 20 clues are forms of 26 across? However an entirely straightforward and unchallenging puzzle a tad on the easy side for an EV.
