I'm busy with work and haven't started writing on the grid, but I'm pretty sure I'm on shore with the help of your post and solving some of the grid in my head.
I need to be more careful about spoilers though. Last week I had a post removed for saying that if you had the answer and didn't submit you were a word coward.
I hope the admins let this post through now that last week's contest is over.

As I am always looking for new ways to waste my time (Guinness and bourbon notwithstanding), this week’s puzzle has reminded me of a game that I used to enjoy quite a bit, but haven’t played for years. Once I solved the meta, I went looking for it and now find myself re-hooked on the subject game.
Oh well....at least I now have something to do between metas.

Ok I was still puzzling over one thing, then It hit me on the drive home. Now I think I see the complete solve. Great puzzle!

Before I start on the Saturday puzzle, we have 102 on the shore already. Maybe another record week?

Done and done. Stumped briefly, then the breakthrough for the solve. Good luck Muggles.

Ashore with confidence. Nice puzzle without, er, loose ends this week.
Spirits - high.
Chance of mug - low.
