I would have to send it in the post, so couldn't guarantee how fresh it might be... 🤣

How do I print the May smile puzzle. It says attachment but I can’t seem to find it. If not I’ll print the screen shot

I think I did a right click on the image which then gave me the choice of opening in a new tab or saving the image. And I then printed it from that.

If anyone is having trouble identifying the missing pieces, your answer to 14 across might help.

I am also prepared to supply some straight clues to some of them for those who struggle with cryptic, just ask if you need to.

Congratulations to Strep, who has solved the May puzzle!
I believe she is also a hair's breadth away from solving the June puzzle too!😀

Well done strep!

I am still struggling to find time, and also brain power, to get my remaining puzzles solved but they are still there waiting for me! :)

July's puzzle

I've done it on an Excel spread sheet - hope that's OK. If not, give me a shout and I will try to copy it into paint or something.

I think I have a few answers but while some have something in common the others do not! Will keep looking though.
