Never a cross word

Especially not in the month of luuuurrrve, right?

Mnr Devlin has been up to his usual tricks and has produced a Valentine’s special crossword for your delectation this month. I’m nipping in between blackouts (the electricity, not my brandy-induced ones) to post this for you to try.

Themed (somewhat) around the concept of love, you’ll note that romance, sex, climaxes and  women’s clothing all feature at least once.

Saturday morning

If the weather forecast for Cape Town is to believed (and hey, it’s only wrong half the time), this morning is set to be properly chilly.

May I therefore advise you to curl up with a nice warm device (careful now), some coffee and a cryptic crossword, courtesy of 6000 miles… resident crossword compiler?

Clue of the month for me has to be 16 Down:

Because using a narcissistic sniper has always the best way to get rid of human-shaped supernatural beings from Germanic mythology and folklore.

Enjoy!

Traveling

It’s July 14th – Bastille Day in France (and, I suppose, everywhere else as well), but we’re nowhere near France right now.

We’re traveling home today:

IOM – DUB – DXB – CPT

I have had a word with the 6000 miles… crossword expert, and he’s come up with an appropriately travel-themed crossword for July.

I will present this to you now:

There’s it.

Something to occupy the next 26 hours then. (I hope it doesn’t take me that long.)
