A very good Friday morning from Winnipeg. What better way of returning to normality after my two weeks of volunteering at the Canada Summer Games than two hours in the dentist’s chair on Monday afternoon at the beginning of the week.… Read More

Kia ora from Aotearoa.
Another rainy week here.
It took us a little while to get a toehold on this one and we enjoyed the challenge so we have given it good ratings for both difficulty and enjoyment.… Read More

[Jump to across or down hints, quickie pun, or comments] Hello, everyone, and welcome to another Tuesday Telegraph Cryptic. We’re back in straightforward and solid territory this week. Nothing too taxing in the solve and a few smiles along the way, although no real laugh out loud moments for this solver. Surprisingly, we have just three anagrams today, and they're all found among the down clues. But for me the most striking feature in today's puzzles was the pattern in the Quickie answers.… Read More

Rain, rain and more rain. We even suspect that the power outage that caused us to have a candlelit evening recently was caused by water getting into part of a transformer where it should not have been.… Read More

Hello, everyone. I thought today's puzzle was just excellent. I found the bottom somewhat easier than the top, where some serious thinking was required in a few places. The enjoyment level was way above average, with a few laugh out loud moments. The puzzle has smooth surface readings, nothing too ancient or too obscure in the answers, and a few echoes scattered about. Sounds like it could be the work of one of our regular Tuesday setters.… Read More
