I find some of Dante’s clues quite brilliant, but then some of them I just don’t get at all. Happily the balance always falls down on the positive side for me, so I’m still a happy bunny. Thanks Dante.

For the second Thursday in a row, we have to work out what a letter means in the clues to solve the puzzle. Last week’s offering from Wanderer was a great example of how a themed puzzle should work. Unfortunately, I am not so keen on today’s.
