I have never disembowelled myself (5) I start to drum, interrupting Ringo! (3) #cryptic #crossword setter as Henri (MyCrossword, Unch, Inquisitor, Gnomon and henriwords.com) and Odo (Guardian). One of the Unch Bunch. Rob Townsend, really
It just occurred to me that I’ve been setting crosswords for four years now (it was actually earlier this month but I’ve only just thought to check). I dug out the original inspiration: an interview between @alanconnor.bsky.social and @mycrossword.co.uk … and was amused to read my own comment 😆
QUIZ! Clearing out a late relative’s loft, we found a coaster set based on a 1982 ad campaign for sandwich paste (“Top of the Pots”) taking off pop acts of the time. Can you (a) guess who they’re supposed to be and (b) for a million bonus points, guess the pastiche artist names given in the ads? 😁
This optical illusion has proper twisted my melon 🤯 The tabletops are the same size and shape 🤯 (video proof in reply)
On the occasion of Mel Brooks’ 100th birthday, please enjoy this crossword I started but never got around to finishing
Hey #cryptic #crossword people [and in particular those familiar with / reasonably competent at the barred thematic format]… I seek a volunteer to test solve my proposed next HenriWords subscriber puzzle Here’s a picture of it, in case that helps 😆 DM me if you’re interested 📥
Excellent! I also love little zines 😁 a few years ago I made a monthly TinyZine™ of photos I’d taken that month 😁 I should do that again…
We don't usually see each other's headers. Here's mine. Quote post with yours.
Facebook Memories (aka Social Media Radio 2) tells me that 14 years ago today I saw a young English couple playing Travel Scrabble™ between courses in a restaurant in Nice Full details in ALT text I guess you could say they were… (wait for it) enjoying “a night on the tiles”? 😆 *satisfied sigh*
OK let’s see who got the smallest payout, I’ll go next (I think it’s about 13p)
Haha, thanks for that — I had a vague memory of this fella and dug this out:
Happy 10th Crosswordiversary to Me! 🥳 (ironically I then didn’t attempt another one until 2022 🤷♂️)
