@skirwingle That was lots of fun! 9,18,22, more... :-)

@archelina Ace!

I'm in this month's 1Across, with a puzzle I expect the setter Alf doesn't know he inspired. #cryptics #crosswords #CrypticCrossword

Hey, Ian, if you mean "the 1900s", say so, but 2000 is in the C20th! :-P #CountyCricketMatters #cricket

@skirwingle Ha! :-)

#GardenNews #insects The last chap seems a bit fighty.

Ooh, someone owes me money, cool. Going to go wild and buy a few second-hand books.

@skirwingle @archelina Yeah, fair. "Early C20th", & tho' only "chiefly" Am/Aus, an indic might've helped. But I liked the short surface! :-)

There's a blog at https://www.fifteensquared.net/2023/06/18/independent-on-sunday-1738-by-mev/ if you missed the repeat. ;-)

@archelina Thank you! :-)

@TheVoidTLMB ^Sample clue:
Perfect cowboy nickname: "Shot Bot Jake" (8)
No spoilers here, please.

(To be clear: it's a new puzzle...)
