If your idea of spring cleaning is to point comically large speakers at all the dusty old cobwebs hanging around the living room and to blow them away with really rather loud music, then here are a few playlists that might help you in that regard. Enjoy!

Times Jumbo Cryptic Crosswords
Ever since I was a young ‘un, when I was given a stupendously thick puzzle book one day to keep me quiet, I have been an insufferable puzzle nut. Over the last however many years I’ve been rather a fan of the Times Jumbo Cryptic Crossword, published in The Times every Saturday and on Bank Holidays. As a means of getting blogging again, I started publishing my solutions to each puzzle – the links to which you can find below. I don’t know how many more I’ll do before moving onto some other timesink – let’s just see how I get on, eh?
[UPDATE 24/09/2022 – Some of the posts are now old enough to feature in the annual Times Jumbo Cryptic Crossword Books. I’ve updated this list and relative posts accordingly. – LP]
