For some reason the last one seems to have been deleted for breaching talk guidelines! 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Hepzibar did your spelling involve the letter adjacent in the alphabet to the correct letter? I hesitated and second-guessed myself so left that letter blank until I completed the "down" clue

Hepzibar · 31/01/2023 20:07

@MarmiteWine it did! 🙄

Oh dear! Actually put the wrong letter in for the pie clue!

MarmiteWine · 31/01/2023 21:40

Oh no @IGoWalkingAfterMidnight 😢 I also hesitated over that one and left that letter blank on the first pass.

Lost 4 secs to pop-ups, then took a little while to find a way in. Ended up reading all the A clues then getting my first answer at 3D.

I thought that was fairly straightforward - 1:37 for me.

I don't seem to be improving! Took ages to get the PW.

Found that rather trickier than usual today.

Also lost 4 seconds to loading at the start and couldn't get a good footing on the CW for a while. Not helped by having a blank about the city!

Found cw straightforward but just couldn't see pw at all

DadDadDad · 02/02/2023 07:04

1:29 for me. @Sunbird24 - that seems a slow time for you, given this one seemed on the easy side. (Still faster than most of us, of course!)
