A typical delightful offering from WANDERER – with a healthy range of difficulty in the clues. Some parsings could be improved upon I think.

A good solid workout from GOLIATH this Friday. Seemingly inscrutable at first, the pieces fell in place faster than I had expected them to, once I got going. Several witty/innovative clues I thought .. thanks Goliath !

An atypical challenge from BRADMAN today, with a disporportionate number of long words/phrases. A few words that I didnt know before the solve but quite easily gettable from the solid construction of the clue.

A grueling challenge from NEO today that I got through after a long struggle, battered and bruised. Thanks NEO, for making me feel good about the week until today, retrospectively! 🙂
