DA Reports for the 25/26th of May, 2012 Posted on 24 May 201231 May 2012 by AS Get your crossword story down on the record right here. Update: And here it is:
Today’s was the most fun I’ve had for a long while. Too many to really mention, but 4D and 16D were tops and I discovered 19D for myself. Very clever DA. I would go so far as to say this is a classic despite there being no theme. Oh, I think 12A is wrong as it rightly ends on O not A.
My experience was different from Keith’s. For me, the ratio of DA delights to DA annoyances was nowhere near good enough to qualify as a classic.
