On a first read through, a lot could be discarded immediately (eg the essay at 19 and a number of 'giveaway' swats-hard definitions, along with several clues that had dull surfaces, not to mention all the usual unsound stuff). In fact I found that I had very conveniently singled out five, so it was a matter of putting them in order. I put 13 first, a clever & lit using 'frets', followed by the easy-to-solve-but-elegant 15. With 31,9,51 it was more of a toss-up. |
