Notes
As this was a Saturday "Prize Puzzle" in Britain, there are two entries related to it on Big Dave's Crossword Blog — the first, posted on the date of publication, contains hints for selected clues while the second is a full review issued following the entry deadline for the contest. The vast majority of reader comments will generally be found attached to the "hints" posting with a minimal number — if any — accompanying the full review. This puzzle appears on the Monday Diversions page in the Saturday, July 20, 2019 edition of the National Post. For the summer, I am taking a break from producing a detailed review of weekday puzzles. Instead, I will be found relaxing by a pristine lake at a rustic off-grid campground. During this period, I will post an abbreviated "Vacation Edition" which provides a link to the review on Big Dave's Crossword Blog for the puzzle that I expect to be published that day. However, as the National Post occasionally skips puzzles, there is no guarantee that my forecast will necessarily prove to be accurate. I will continue to post the Saturday puzzle although the review will likely appear a few days later.
