Ooh, thank you! I apologize in advance for all Americanism-related pain!

Ah, cheers! It's just what goes out to Square Chase subscribers when a puzzle drops. I typically explain old clues and give updates on my adventures in the field, but I've had a lot of technical questions lately and have begun to expound a bit. Maybe I should share the commentary elsewhere as well.

Agreed! Funnily, I just finished writing a piece on to-infinitives in cryptic grammar for my next newsletter.

Glad you tried the Indy today! That's "up" as "in an excited state", which is awfully cheeky.

Thanks so much! I really should go back and have a look at those sometime. 🙈
