Cryptic crossword No 2,110

Thanks, PostMark! A happy-making theme and favourite clues were 9a, 11a, 12a, 19a, 22a, 5d, 8d and 14d.

Fabulous - and for me a tad more accessible than some of yours, possibly helped by spotting something interesting half a dozen clues in 😁 Loved 11a, 2d, 8d, 14d (FOI and what a surface! 😆), 15d and 21d. Question (not quibble) in reply. Thanks!

Lovely stuff! I finished it after a grid check failed. I particularly liked 25a 2d 14d 15d 21d 23d and 27d.

Very good fun PM, thanks - and a theme even I could spot! I got a bit stuck at the end with 14a and 5d, but made it over the line. Favourites included 16a, 24a,29a, 1d, 15d, and 26d

Thanks PostMark for a very enjoyable crossword. I found this 'accessible' and solved it in one sitting. There were loads of good clues with my likes including 11a, 22a, 24a, 28a, 2d, 23d, 26d, and 27d. I needed your notes to parse 4d. More in reply.

Cracking puzzle PM, tons of brilliant clues including 9a (nice construction), 11a (fun), 28a (smooth), 30a (fun), 2d (very cheeky), 3d (neat), 6d (very neat), 8d (excellent), 14d (neat), 15d (neat), 21d (fun) and 23d (smooth)...

Smashing puzzle, PM. No surprise there. Wot everyone else said basically. 13a's quite unusual ... and I loved it. Ta lots.

Very good PM, thanks. For me, this was at the tougher end for you, particularly the top half where I needed a fair bit of help. Barely a quibble, though - occasionally I just don’t find myself on the right wavelength. Favourites: 11a, 12a, 19a, 25a, 14d, 15d, 21d (I’m still 8) and 26d. Spoilers …

Surprised no one has mentioned 18d in despatches yet - thought that was a nice find. Favourite for me was 4d though. Good stuff, PM.

Just a brief thanks for this PM. Lots to enjoy though little time for a detailed appraisal as on lengthy hospital visits (again!). Suffice it to say I had 11a, 12a, 4d (he's fallen in the water!!) as my podium. Very good.

Thank you for sharing this with The Cryptic Mystic. It was a fantastic episode.
