Ashore. Got the feeling this is going to be a very crowded beach.

Yes, it can be that simple.

On the beach, planning for a coffee now and a G & T later in the day!

Matt Gaffney, you’re driving me crazy! The meta popped for me in seconds, but the grid took me 34 pen-chewing minutes. Thanks for a fun challenge, and looking forward to my road soda after today’s fast ends! (The Fast of Gedalia, which follows Rosh Hashanah)

Already page 6. I’m ashore. No I will go back and finish the grid.

PAGE 6??? YIKES. I've reached the shore. And here I had been edging me way lower in page numbers. Oh well. Happy to be ashore and still in single digits.
Have a great weekend, Muggles.

Also ashore before finishing the grid (for the first time ever)

So, two other great classic movies: The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit and A Gentleman’s Agreement. Which did you prefer, or was it a tie?

Ashore. Another very easy meta but it seems those are the only ones I can solve

Fast? I'm like the guy in the tzom gedalia joke (if you don't know it, you can find it online). Worse, beach-bound these last few days, I also missed out on the shofar. But I was thinking of you and your profile pic.yourpalsal wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 5:38 pm Matt Gaffney, you’re driving me crazy!

Ahsore! Fastest one yet- both in filling out the grid and solving the meta.

Ashore, after kind of forgetting it was Thursday...didn't print the grid until 530pm and then forgot about it again until after dinner...
