Hi Chrise
I thought the same as you when I started at 4.00pm, but after getting last clue on first run through I persisted, checked the forum at 6.00pm and then they started to come. I'd finished by 8.00pm despite stopping to do some ironing and place our veg order (always a lenghthy process). I was quite an easy crossword for Paul, though some clues brought the usual wry smile. I was sorry that I was too late to help anyone else.
I hope to see you on the forum again next week.
