El Zen Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 You’re decking the halls with boughs of holly, thinking it’s been a while since your last travelled, when you hear a knock on the door. You open, only to find a large xmas present, and you unwrap a shiny National guitar with instructions written on it to travel along the river that shines as brightly as the guitar to your next destination. There’s a postcard included, with a picture of Egyptian architecture and handwriting that tells you to go to a city, where a dream was brutally ended, and whose most famous attraction is the residence of a former monarch, now a place of pilgrimage, that could easily be set to music with the help of a National guitar.

MakemineVanilla Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Yesterday's Times crossword had a clue which was rather topical and Villa related. A Scottish team lifting second title abroad (5) It had me thinking that Times crossword champion and Villa fan, Guy Haslam, had set the puzzle. It was particularly difficult.
