A surprisingly simple one from you - variety is the spice of life! : )

Liked the inclusion of snap, only ever heard of it around Nottingham.

Great fun!

HippyHoppy - STOP CLUTTERING THE COMMENT BOARDS !!

Shame on you joe for having a pop at one of the nicest people on this website, totally unnecessary!

Sorry HippyHoppy!!! you wrote alot of positive comments on my previous grids, apologies. Shame on me? get a grip, wish i had a life where i became incensed by a minor criticism delivered to someone else on an anonymous puzzle website.

Not incensed, joe/ George- just a big fan of HippyHoppy's lovely sunny approach to the site- we need more like that- and didn't want them put off from joining in whenever they like as I for one am always very grateful. It seemed a bit unfair and rude- it's only clutter if it's not wanted, but I do appreciate very much the fact that you apologised to HippyHoppy, that was big of you, so thank you :)

I'm going to quit the rude trolling... sorry everyone. I'm taking out my inner turmoil on others, very immature and counter productive. I'll start contributing positively to this site

Sorry to jmelb also for downvoting his grids - i hope i haven't made him quit

Wow- I'm genuinely impressed with this, if it's truly authentic- well done and thank you! I've tried not to take negativity to heart as I kind of got the impresion that that was what was going on- and I had noticed an attitude change- it takes a big person, so thank you! This ought to be a safe space, if you have problems, we're here to provide a distraction- bit of mental exercise, and hopefully support. Thanks again!
