Ashore. I'm just hoping that Isaac has enough books or video games to get him through the social isolation this one will bring.

What a treat to sit in the quiet and do an easy meta after a hard day’s work! (And then to sip a… hmm… margarita?.. with a bunch of good folks like you, ON THE SHORE.

Ashore, with only half a grid filled in! G&T for me, with a twist of orange peel. :D
Check out "The MOAT Mini Pack of Marching Bands" here. US$5 gets you 7 Marching Bands which, hard enough on their own, now contain metas too. And once again there's a mega-meta! :D

Oh, my god. That was so cute!

Really difficult grid and a huge frustrating "huh" until it's there. So... it's cold today. Irish coffee with Bailey's I think.
