Introduction
While relatively easy, today's puzzle was still an enjoyable exercise. However, there was certainly nothing in it to knock your socks off (or, as Gazza says "I didn’t get the “wow” factor from any of the clues"). I was able to complete about three quarters of the puzzle before digging into the Tool Chest - with the northwest quadrant proving to be the most difficult region.
