Hi,

I just wanted to clarify that I understand the instructions correctly on this puzzle,

The way I read it is that the clues listed at A - answers will begin with A

Clues at B - answers will begin with B

Clues at C - answers will begin with C

And so on!

Is this correct?


Thanks

That is correct

That's the way I see it, and if there are two for a letter, the first solution comes alphabetically before the second.

Unfortunately there are two many "doubles" to write in all the letters that start both across and down clues directly (except the B, I hope!)

In fact, there seems to be only one pair with common starting letter anyway.

Have you the 2 'B' entries in the top left corner as your starting point?

That's where I was planning on entering them!

Yes - seems to be working so far.

I've spotted the other theme, but am still having difficulty coming up with answers to them.

Did the B give away the first theme to you? Or am I picking something too obvious?!

One of the Bs was a hint, then I got some others.

I'm finding it a bit frustrating, to be honest. The clueing is a bit too loose in places for this sort of puzzle. I've got several that I think are right, but the clue isn't precise enough for me to be sure.

Well I am stumped, even if I could work out the clues I have no idea as to how to place them! I can see where the B clues go, and in the past double clues have been included for maybe only one or two clues thus placing them was easy. How does this work please?! I'm sorry to be so clueless - pun intended!

Well, I have a completed grid, but several I'm not sure about, and they may not all be right.


I'll wait to see what other posts come up before giving any possible spoilers.
