No, not completed yet, but I have found the quotations and this changes from hard grind to pleasure.

Listener Crossword 4132 Ups and Downs by Llig

Well, I seem to be almost at the end of this and have yet to decipher the precise quotation although I think I have the gist. Fastest grid fill for some time, so all the more reason to be careful.

Listener 4131 - Carte Blanche en Tore by Ten-Four

Easiest one of the year for me by a long chalk. Am I getting smarter, or are these Listeners getting simpler?

S.Tel Enigmatic Variations 876

Nearly there with last week's EV. Have got the clash in the grid and the instruction formed by redundant letters but don't understand "five lines to break up the two misspelt words". Please can anyone...

Listener Crossword 4128 Ringtone by Trev

Evening all. Once again I find myself staring at a completed grid and a completed instruction, the former quite straightforward, the latter requiring a leap of imagination that so far eludes me. All...

EV 957 Products by Samuel

What a fun puzzle. The final step of turning the interim product into the final product made me laugh. Lots of thematic material and some well concealed misprints - bravo and huzzah!

Listener 4127

Has no one started a thread? Is it because people are a little bit disappointed with this one? Perhaps there is some clever twist that I haven't seen.

Listener 4126 Arthurian Legend by Corvettes

Wow. Absolutely brilliant. I tried to rotate the rings mentally, but got out the scissors after a few minutes. Then half my letters were upside down, so I printed out a new grid and re-filled it. An...

Listener 4125 Elementary Number Theory by Oyler

Elementary, indeed. An easily guessed theme as far as resolving the ambiguities is concerned, leading to a very quick grid fill. The most interesting thing about it was checking the statements against...

Enigmatic Variations 951

Finding this one tough going. Amendments to the clue entries makes this virtually a cold-solve in many respects. I am down to the last 5 clues, but have been stuck for a while. I guess the lack of...
