Presumably there are crossword addicts out there who are regular receivers of the monthly magazine of the National Federation of Occupational Pensioners. Until very recently its "cryptic" puzzle - involving about 25 answers - was a pleasant way of passing about 10 minutes. I usually sent it in ...all for the sake of a possible £25 prize!
However, it seems to have changed BIG time. I've been poring over the July edition of the magazine for an hour... and am stuck on several clues. I won't ask for specific help now - but I would like to know if there are other regulars out there.
