I thought it was a piece of cake...I finished, or so I thought, went and made a cup of coffee, came back and found that the clock was still running! Great puzzle! and thanks for the shout out!
Thanks for solving and for the feedback! Unfortunately the rate of unassisted solves is running just under 50% at the moment so I may have missed the mark. Any ideas for clue revisions to make them more gentle or accessible would be appreciated!
