Another classic Phi puzzle this Phiday.       As is so often the case with Phi’s puzzles these days, we can’t see a theme or nina here, but that doesn’t mean to … Read more >>

Sorry Knut – you have landed us again. Not that we’re complaining! You did however give us the run-around during the solve.   It’s Tuesday and the setter is Knut so we were … Read more >>

Eccles occupies the mid-week slot this week.   We found this a fairly straightforward solve with a good mix of relatively easy clues to get us started and a few rather more difficult … Read more >>

A great Thursday challenge from Knut today.   Plenty here to get the old grey matter working. Not being football fans, we had to check 18ac but Bert had at least heard of … Read more >>

Phi-day again and another great puzzle to end the week.   We can’t help feeling that there must be something going on here, but we can’t see it. Can anyone out there find … Read more >>

We had the pleasure of blogging Eccles’ most recent Indy puzzle last month, and here he is again!   All good fun – nothing too tricky, lovely surfaces, and some ingenious definitions. Our … Read more >>
