Might get time later this afternoon to have a look, but this theme seems quite familiar - think it was a topic of a xword from "CAM" magazine. Hopefully it won't be as hard as that one was!

Oh, sudokulover, your secret is out! You must be that nice Australian lady I just spoke to on the Guardian's News Desk...

Has anybody else had difficulty getting this month's "Genius"? The puzzle doesn't appear on the website, and when I try to get the print version a message appears to say that the crossword is not yet available. The link suggested by sudokulover doesn't seem to work, either.

martin - I am sure we had a java update within the last month. I downloaded the puzzle from "chrome", but just checked and I can also download from firefox too. If you supply an email address I could send you a copy?

Thank you, sudokulover, but I eventually solved the problem by uninstalling my Java (which wasn't working), and installing it again. That was the easy bit; now comes the difficult one - doing the crossword: I've been staring at it for twenty minutes, without being able to solve even one clue....maybe I shouldn't have bothered.

Yes 13a is a clever (& topical) clue.

Can you please point me to one or two other
'normal clues' ?
