PS

You will be missed Pastille but best of luck in your new venture and don't work too hard x

I'd just like to thank you all for your congratulations & good wishes! I think the worst is over now --- I mean on the crossword & health fronts!
And just keep well yourselves!

Well done GK.

Well that will teach me not to go to bed at 10 o’ clock at night and not to be a proud possessor of a scanner. I wholeheartedly apologise ladies for this chronic oversight on my part.
RE, I was going to choose you to be my virtual slave for the week. I think you must consider yourself lucky that the ‘boudoir’ was broached by GK. I was really having great fun thinking up amusing tasks for you; not least the huge pile of virtual ironing that is waiting and having to construct a flat pack wardrobe using the instructions, as it seems, that, according to a recent report men will avoid reading instructions or asking for directions. However, it seems all my cunning plans and schemes were very short lived and are therefore, sadly not destined to come to fruition.
Thank you to all who sent congratulations when I declared that I had won earlier in the evening. x

Bob's mum: please look in your mailbox: I've contacted you privately!

Congratulations to my fellow Legionnaire. I started this late last night, and have the top two blocks done except for four entries. I'm (not surprisingly) having a bit of trouble with the ladies.

By the way, pastille, I trust you won't be recruiting the seraglio for your new business venture.

Congrats GK and bad luck Bobsmum.
I've been no help to the girls I 'm afraid. I have finished 'Nom de plumes' but am really struggling with 'The Gatekeepers'.
I'm finding 'The Foreign Legion' the most difficult of the four grids, not helped by the fact that there isn't one of mine there for starters.
Pastille. There is no such thing as retirement from this forum. It's just not allowed. We will miss your sense of fun so please come back, at least part-time.

@ bobs mum - I had a sneaky feeling that I might have been singled out by you as your 'bitch' for the week. Thank you GK for sparing me the extra workload :)

Weh hey JE has now arrived and I was just wondering if there is a booby prize for being last :)

Well done Emrach, hope you've rattled a few off.

It would be interesting to know how everyone's doing on a percentage scale.

Do you all think we should start a hints thread maybe tomorrow or Thursday?
