Well, I’ve been banging away at this all day and, again, it’s a newspaper-destined puzzle that doesn’t quite fit the bill for me. It isn’t too hard – it’s just that the chosen theme isn’t one that will be universally popular. It isn’t specialist, but… oh, just solve it and see. Anyway, my good friend Flashling managed to polish off yesterday’s early offering with indecent haste and wondered what to do for the rest of the weekend, so here we go: http://crossword.info/anaxcrosswords/STFW007 (of course, that should read SFTW but it’s late and I’m tired). Once again, the interactive puzzle has a PDF link if you want to assault a former tree.
Thank you Anax, a nice little diversion for the afternoon. I read your STFW as NSFW initially…
Many thanks, Anax, for a second [bonus] weekend puzzle. I don’t know about the theme being unpopular [the theme word remained elusive, for me, for long enough to sustain interest!] but I knew all of them: perhaps that says it all – a pretty eclectic mix!
[I’d never heard of 24ac, though.]
