Here's my Christmas present to any Umbracians who enjoy solving cryptic crosswords, or perhaps to anyone who wants to try solving them!
In 2022 - the last time I crafted a puzzle - I also wrote a guide to solving them. So if you want to learn about how to solve cryptic crosswords, please scroll to the bottom section of that article.
There's a little reward for the first 15 people who submit a correctly completed grid (tree!).
BTW some people have reported that they can't see the letters typed into the grid. If that's the case for you please hop on over to my website and complete it there - apologies!
