FT – Page 171 – Fifteensquared

A tricky puzzle today from Wanderer that I had to attempt a few times to get through. Yet another crossword where the parsing for many clues took longer than the solve itself. Thanks Wanderer, for a brisk workout!

Some off-beat definitions make this an interesting solve, and a possible mistake? Thank you Alberich.

Thanks to Crux for a very enjoyable solve today. It’s a great pleasure to still be in Costa Rica doing the blog at leisure in the early evening rather than rushing to finish it in the morning!

An interesting challenge from Chalmie, where my last 3 clues took me more time than all the others preceding them. Thanks Chalmie , for a nearly easy workout.

An enjoyable puzzle. One of those where the parsing looks obvious in retrospect, but not so before finding the solutions. How it should be – thank you Redshnak.
