Times Quick Cryptic No 1209 by Teazel
A very relatively
gentle offering from Teazel that should provide encouragement to our
less-experienced solvers, and maybe result in PBs for some.[Edit: It would appear I've underestimated the difficulty and 1D has been troublesome for some].
I was held up only by uncertainty at the ending of 11a. I got a bit
worried by 1 and 3 down that we were in for a bit of a saucy time, but
that was the end of it. I enjoyed being reminded of the bikini at 18a,
but COD goes to the simple 6d for the straightforward introduction to
the semi-&lit
type of clue. 22a may generate a MER (minor eyebrow raise) from some,
but there was really very little to frighten the horses. Just over 5
minutes for me, despite 11a, as a result. Thanks Teazel! How did you all
like it?
P.S. I post this in advance of heading to York today for the fifteensquared Sloggers and Betters event. Hoping to see some of you there.
