Unch buyers! You lovely people you. Quick favour to ask: when you get your copy of Issue 2, please post a photo on here - and it might featured in one of the cute little website slideshows 😊

If you like cryptic crosswords by independent setters, you should look at buying Unch magazine. It's even got an interview with me in it - this will either enhance or ruin your experience, depending on your viewpoint. Issue 1 was really good, I'm looking forward to this one arriving soon.

OK so if you bought a copy of Issue 2 it will be in the post by end of day tomorrow. UK copies should start arriving by the end of the week. Orders are still open on the website - buy now while stocks last! unchcrosswords.com #CrypticCrosswords
