Although I have to say as I read the first few clues, I gained no traction whatsoever, but then everything just started to click. I enjoy a nice DUTYFREESTORE (I tried "shop" but noticed it was one letter shy), and I never realized that THREEDOG referred to a cold night. It's always nice to learn something. I thought that USH was terrible. Who doesn't have time to say "usher?" And a SEAHORSE is just downright strange, but there is a lot of that in the world. I enjoyed the SE crossing of DHAKA and LHASA as well as the breezy DASHESOFF. I thought there was more to like than not today.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
