A New Year bonus

December 31, 2019 By Phixwd 1 Comment

It’s not quite the thing for the evening of New Year’s Eve, but one has to fill the time before keeping the cats calm when the fireworks go off.  But putting something up today also helps me realign the schedule after a three-week gap (rather than a fortnight) late last year.

So here’s an Independent daily puzzle from 2015.

Happy New Year – there are puzzles by me in both the Times (a Quick Cryptic by Pedro) and the Telegraph (a Toughie by Kcit) on 2 January, as well as the usual Friday Independent appearance on 3 January.

    Happy New Year to you all basking in the New Zealand fine weather. Heres hoping 2020 brings great things to you all (pleasantly puzzling things too).

    I shall enjoy sitting down with your Independent puzzle over a small sherry and the New Year’s Day Concert from Vienna
