Hi Jono,

Only about a third of the way through but I can already see that it's a particularly good one.

PS Don't be thrown by the doubling of the enumeration in the online version, as this doesn't appear in the pdf.

That was weird, I had no problem accessing the online puzzle and, upon completion, was just about to press 'submit' when a box appeared saying congratulations! Then, next to the grid, all the answers and their parsings appeared.

I wonder if this is a new thing, where you can access the puzzle but can only submit if you subscribe?

There is one bit of parsing I still don't get where "at" has to come from "layer next to skin".

Any help would be much appreciated.

... unless it's 'a t(ee)' as in A T-Shirt?

@Jono

I could have sworn I saw a post earlier where you mention a confusing preamble, but now I can't find it - is this a false memory or did you have it deleted?
