    Nice one, I like the way you clued AZ! I think 3d should be (2,3)?

      Thanks and thanks again! Fixing it now. 😄

      apart from 1A and 3D I found this quite tricky to break into (in a good way), thanks for the brain stretch! I especially liked 2D. agree with nate about the enumeration for 3D.

        Managed to do this one without any clues, super fun! I can’t imagine the amount of thought and creative wording goes into these, very well done!

            Neat subtraction in 1D!

              Yay! Got stuck on 1A (never read GI Jones before haha) but once I got it everything fell into place :)
