I
really should write my introduction to my Jumbo blogs while the
crossword is fresh in my memory. I see that it took me 44 minutes, which
is about average for me, I think. Plenty of normal difficulty clues to
help populate the grid, but then some absolute peaches that had me
putting double ticks on my copy... The clever cross-reference at 47A,
the Greek scrabble piece at 22D the magnificent neologisms at 32D, and
the clever reverse cryptic at 49A were the highlights for me, but there
were plenty more. I enjoyed this a lot.. apart from 1A where I initially
guessed the letter sequence from the anagram of an unknown word
wrong... no that's just sour grapes. Thank-you clever setter! How did
everyone else get on?
