Well this is annoying! Took Arachne's #30000 on holiday and have followed all the breadcrumbs successfully. Problem is that the bonus puzzle was published whilst on a plane and I've no access to a printer until next week now. Given that it's by Enigmatist I'm now worried it will be in 17A 12A.

@thevoidtlmb.social.vivaldi.net.ap.brid.gy Holiday printouts started. Ideal depth to wade through, almost Perfect. You even started to write the rating for me just had to add ".9/10" after your nickname. Faves: 22A 25A, 31A 19D and 29D Next it's a roll with the @guineverecryptic.bsky.social 🤭

God it makes me cross. Fuckers. Awful, rotten fuckers. Apply this to pretty much whatever you like.

What absolute bollocks! The peak abuse (dreadful syntax BTW) is the endless (highly enjoyable) arguments about why an indicator/clue/anagrind does/doesn't work etc. Best not to mention homophones either... #PhysicianHealThyself

While there I asked if I should have the MMR vaccine. I have had every vaccine I should have but the MMR didn't exist when I was that age. The GP said she would check the records and call me. Just off the phone and I'm booked in for next Friday. Ask your surgery about MMR. Help protect everyone.

At half eight I rang my surgery to make an appointment to see a GP. Less than three hours later I'm back home diagnosed, treatment plan in place, medicines acquired, follow up and physio appointments booked. The cost? Zero! Sure the NHS isn't perfect but it's far from broken. Thank you NHS.

Grammatically speaking I couldn't agree more. It MEANS, SIGNIFIES, DEMONSTRATES and ATTESTS that you are British. These moronic rascist arseholes who insist that everyone must be able to speak English can't actually speak English. Fuckwits the lot of 'em.
