I write as someone who has never attempted advanced puzzles and still does a lap of honour around the living room if I manage to complete a standard cryptic. Therefore, I'm not really in a position to be critical of clues, but I do prefer those that don't use definitions that I would consider too obscure.
I like seeing a misleading context and therefore gave points to 10, 15, 28, and 48, which I think did this best, diverting the attention away from trains et al.
That said, I also liked the more simple 27 and 38, and the imagery conjured up by 51.
I look forward to participating in more of these. |
