Another clever thematic puzzle that is worth a try. …heverylogicalprizepuzzle.blogspot.com/2025/07/1.html…
I thoroughly recommend the Gemelo crossword today. A tour de force! observer.co.uk/puzzles/gemelo…
Gemelo 1 cdn.observer.co.uk/media/document… A new crossword series starts today which replaces Azed on the weekends other than the clue-writing competitions (which are still by Azed on the first Sunday each month).
All the cruciverbal news is in the July newsletter from the Crossword Centre. crosswordcentre.blogspot.com/2025/07/crossw…

Another cracking crossword from Mr Nolan. …heverylogicalprizepuzzle.blogspot.com/2025/06/across…
I set today's Sunday Telegraph EV puzzle, Busy Bees. An extra letter in each clue must be removed before solving, in order spelling out a message. More raids provoked confusion (8) Timber support bangs rector (4) Bandit crowed grabbing equipment (7)
