Nice mixture

Top gridding

Oh, lovely word play! that is clever, right up my alley

Cheers all. It's one of my favourites but tastes vary - it's getting a pretty low rating :-))

Dare I say this- I think some people confuse the quality and difficulty ratings- if its too hard for them they score it lower. YOU must know it is quality- I certainly do. 5* from me ,most definitely, and well earned

Thanks Lorna. I think you're right about the dodgy ratings on here. The fifth star may as well not be there. By the bottom of page 1 no-one scores 5/5. 27000 puzzles in and I'd be surprised if there's a 5 star on the site.

Try to be satisfied with knowing that you did a good job- you're not crowd pleasing, you're coming up with quality grids which are unique to you. I stopped sorting by the "best grids" button shortly after first joining the site 'cos it was all just the easy ones and I soon got bored. I really loved the style of this grid, some of your best work :)
