That's a good clue!

Not up to Guardian standards though!

Don't know - would have been a good one.

It did occur to me that my comment might have been misinterpreteed, in the light of other threads - I was complimenting the setter.

No seriously, I just don't think it was a sharp as some of the ones you've shared with us recently.

ChrisE, for which national newspaper are you the crossword critic?
shouldn't you crank it up a bit, I imagine your editor will get a bit cheesed with nice, good, ok,a bit rude,etc. try things like;
"this clue makes saturday night and sunday morning seem like a vicarage tea party".

"this clue works well on so many levels, I particularly liked the veiled references to american foreign policy in the '70s".

""this clue is one of the most profoundly affecting I've seen in a long time. it moved me greatly. it's innocence and love combine to create something very unusual and, I think, something very important".

when you start winning awards slip a fiver in the post.

Thnks for the advice, berkspotter - I'll take it as it was meant.
