Does any one know if there is supposed to be an EV today ??? The ST website still has "The Square and Compass" from last week and carries a message that there will not be one on the 28th. Cannot...
It's a setter's debut this week, as EV welcomes Ranunculus to its list of setters. Some interesting clues and a clever denouement, that took me a long time to spot, so thanks for the workout...
Filled the grid, found the quotation, but stuck on its interpretation. The title "The square and the compass" is relevant, but can't see beyond freemasonry, which I'm sure is irrelevant. 8 cells have...
Well, I have either missed the post or it is too easy for all the clever-cloggsis! I am not one of the CC's and am bumbling along with the usual blind-fold on without a clue as to what is required,...
Please parse:
12ac Something clarified as every conclusion in dealing with case vague (4) = ghee
17ac Capital -- could it be holding politician back? (7)= Tbilisi...
Hello All, I must admit to initially being rather daunted by the grid format, and I didn't find too many "gifts" on the first pass though the clues. Really had to work the clues, but to be honest they...
In Friday's Quick Xword, the clue was: ---- 15 + 22, SINGER [5]. The only word we could fit in was DINAH - which was correct but we can't work out why! Can anyone explain the answer to me please? Many...
Well, where are you all? I know that DocHH is busy packing, but I am sure many of you clever-cloggsis will have got it done and dusted and sent off to Chris for hopeful pickings!! Am half way thro'...
I'll start the ball rolling on this rather fun one with a theme that's a personal favourite of mine. Some very cunning clues and, perhaps, a poignant end game. Wonder if this might have been a shade...
Are you getting the swarms of Ladybirds in your garden/ house at the moment?
Mine are coming and settling in the utility room when the door is open, which it has been for the last three days....
I am bit surprised to be the first person posting, maybe I have missed a thread elsewhere. An enjoyable fill, with much confusion until I changed which letter I was looking at, then everything went...
14D. State of a Scotsman thanks to an upset (7) I have ?????n? The N is iffy. 22A Musicians making row on river in Oxford, perhaps. (5) I have O?T??. Could it be octet if my only two letters are...
Can anybody give me the tiniest hint on what to do once I have solved all the clues (which I have). I can't for the life of me see how to put 46 letters in a thematic order. Anything would be...
Some rather devious clues in this lot but once the thematic entry method's discovered everything fell into place rather nicely. I then went and checked out the source material -- always nice to get a...
Hii..Im sai, Im going to do project on title "Density based traffic light control" My questions are as follows 1. What type of sensor can be used for density based traffic signal control project? 2.If...
proXimal, aka eXternal, making his EV debut I believe. A quirky theme to be sure, but all the more entertaining for that. The clues felt fairly easy, I thought, so hopefully an accessible EV that will...
My hubby is self employed and I've just discovered his NI payments have not been paid for some time. I want to get this sorted for him but I'm unsure if I contact them to start the payments again,...
An enjoyable solve. Squeezed this one in, between the quiet moments this morning. Everyone has the dreaded cold, so other half stayed in bed. Both children up at 6.00, both having wet their beds. Lots...
Hi all, thanks for taking the time to read my question. I was working for my employer for the past 6 months, until a fire broke out at my workplace, and it burnt to a shell. Within my workplace I had...
