It's another month, so another puzzle awaits you (Rows). The solution for the February puzzle is now in place, with the explanations to follow (hopefully a bit quicker than last month!).

The explanations for the February puzzle are now in place. My apologies that up until this point the solution grid contained a typo for 26d, now corrected to OCHE. Thanks to JimFromMN for pointing this out. And I'm sure that stozz will let me know if I've made any similar mistakes with the explanations!

Oops! Someone (i.e. me) forgot that the April puzzle hadn't been activated. This is now done and the answers to the March puzzle are also available.

The explanations for the March puzzle are now in place. Once again my apologies for missing activation of this month's puzzle for a couple of days, although in my defence I had just arrived back from holiday. And that after making an effort to ensure that everything was in place *before* I went away!

A bit behind with the explanations, so the ones for the April puzzle (In Their Nature) are now in place - the May ones to follow a bit quicker hopefully.
On the subject of the April puzzle, I've only just noticed that there was no preamble in place (another symptom of being away from home at an inconvenient time). It was intended to say:
Quote: | 8 answers, symmetrically disposed in the grid and clued without definition, are to be entered appropriately. | Therefore, additional plaudits go to anyone who solved it!

The solution to the July puzzle is now available, along with a new puzzle for August (Removals). I notice I'm a bit behind with the explanations so I'll get onto those forthwith, but meanwhile I hope you enjoy the latest offering.

I've put the explanations in place for the July puzzle. (I realise that the June puzzle has them missing still, but I'll get those done ASAP.)
