Phil Jordan, Sawbill and I are continuing to produce our series of Weekend Quick Cryptic crosswords. We take turns, publishing one a fortnight, and this week it is Phil's turn, Number 137 in the series.
You can try and solve the crossword interactively here on MyCrossword or here on crossword.info. As usual you can download a PDF to print which you can find here. Alternatively you can copy and print the image below. Comments and queries are welcome with the solution post (which also gives tips on some of the clues). I will react to any comments or queries there as soon as I can. You can find an index to the complete series of crosswords here.
A step up in trickiness from recent editions I thought. One of those puzzles where I surprise myself by dimly knowing something I thought I was beyond my GK - the clueing led me nicely to 1d and 19d. Thanks Phil and John.
ReplyDeleteIt was possible a touch trickier, but I tried to make the parsings accessible. Glad you enjoyed it.
