Sorry, no #CrypticSunday stream today as @wyrd.systems has fucked his knee up and is out of commission.

Really chuffed to make my debut as the setter of the Minute Cryptic ‘Mini’ crossword today! The 7x7 Mini is one of the many benefits you get if you’re a paid-up member of MC. Pleased to see it’s going down well so far! Thank you so much for the opportunity @lrlr.bsky.social! #cryptic #crossword

Did you know that @the-independent.com is planning to shelve its cryptic crossword at the end of October? Get involved, by contacting the Indy directly, by retweeting this post and/or by commenting at fifteensquared.net/2026/09/21/i.... Save the Indy #crossword!!

Also, while The Indy's decision is based on clicks, The i Paper presumably doesn't yet know how losing its crossword might affect physical sales of the paper. If you buy The i Paper for its crossword, might be worth saying so here? fifteensquared.net/2026/09/21/i... bsky.app/profile/eccl...

Little nerdy thread on #cryptic #crossword setters workflow.... I don't use Crossword Compiler all that much – preferring an Apple Note for writing & @mycrossword.co.uk for everything else – so I've made myself a database of clues which I can use to check grid fills for words I've clued before...

Today's PSA: Cryptic crosswords are fun and more Americans should get into them so there's an incentive for setters to stop doing clues about, like, cricket and the British public school system.
