Lots of very good ideas this month. Clues 36 and 46 stood out for me, though. Accurate, concise, witty and with believable surface readings. Clues 5 and 13 followed very closely in points with their original workings. Clue 17 stole the last point because of the witty surface reading and original idea, although I was not 100% sure of "as" a joining word. 9 and 39 were also quite nice.
At the other extreme there were some things I did not like. There were rather too many unnecessary exclamation marks! (e.g. 2,18,26) There were a few indirect anagrams (e.g. 11), 'misleading punctuation' (e.g. 16), overlapping parts of the clue (e.g. 19) and such like.
Overall, fun to read through though, and many more ideas it seemed to me than for the LL clues to GREENGROCER a few years ago. |
