This puzzle wasn't TOOBAD in my book, although I agree with Horace that there's quite a bit of junk. I was surprised by the odd clue for OSH (46A Old city in Kyrgyzstan), which no one knows. Nice clues, however, for ESTEE and DREAMT. And what about AMYS? Surely, someone enjoyed seeing that in there.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-11312579899425494452016-11-13T07:27:33.555-05:002016-11-13T07:27:33.555-05:00Again, thanks for the rating.

I too thought first of "second amendment", even though I'd thought initially that a comma would go there, but had rejected it on the theory that it would have to be a comma in the down answer as well. First answer I was confident about was TACT of all things. I have no clue what NOSIDE means. Apparently it's exactly that: the end of a rugby game. A little bit of trivia, but not very interesting in my book, so I give it a C+.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.com
