ReplyDeleteThe theme hasn't been explicitly mentioned.
ReplyDeleteOr has it?
Or is it too obvious?
Thanks for the special Veeyares. In future please send me the clues in Word or Document format. Extracting clues from Excel is a painful process. Moreover you tend to forget some clues due to numbering errors in the grid. In today's CW clue for POTATO was cooked up be me at the last minute as I got an error Clue missing when I was setting up the crossword for publication.
ReplyDeleteOk Sir. Will do as suggested by you in future. Thanks
