I confess this was down to my wizened old digits trembling with excitement over the keyboard. I have problems with my "r's".... I have an "Apple Legover" recipe I am willing to exchange, but I hesitate to fiddle with a spotted dick...Perhaps we should start a pudding club in ED? Would you care to join PGC? B) -

"Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough..." I suppose Her Maj likes the Berkshire pile because it's so handy for "Slough Grammar". She's just like so many ED matres really! :)

Queen Mary not Victoria liked the park and has a gate named after her. I remember the year TBW turned on the Village Christmas lights....*still shuddering*...

Well I hope Ennis gets it - hard working champion with relatively little financial reward....but "successful" F1 drivers and boxers always seem to get the old block voting organised so I reckon Button will get it. The award to a foreign sports star this year goes to Thierry Henry...B)

One good way to learn is to try, say, the Guardian crossword, then compare the following day's solution and work out how the clues were constructed. Different cryptic crossword setters have different styles which you learn to pick up with practice. My favourite Guardian cryptic crossword clue ever was:- E (13)

You only have to look at Babur's menu (the restaurant though, not the takeaway/home delivery) to see how the LL establishments are practically clones of each other... I have this fancy that at dead of night a huge tanker, like a petrol tanker, inches slowly along LL, stopping at intervals to connect a thick black rubber hose to each curry house and pump a fresh week's supply of "Basic Indian Sauce" into their basements....
