Ashore. Time for a wee dram of the Scottish Highlands with a paper umbrellaette.

Got to shore quicker this week than last. Nice puzzle.

I dreamed last night that the puzzle came out and the long across answers were titles of past puzzles and I had to dig up the old puzzles to find the answers. Does this suggest I am addicted and need therapy?

Ashore with a Syrah in hand. Have a great weekend all! I literally laughed out loud and my wife is now certain I am crazy instead of just thinking it.

Stay well
